The Man-Eaters of Kumaon




Jim Corbett, a hunter, who turned into a conservationist and also played a stellar role in setting up of a protected National Park for tigers, is an excellent narrator. These tales, of his encounters with Man-Eaters - tigers and leopards, take you to a bygone era. The descriptions of the jungles of Kumaon and Garhwal have always mesmerised me. Corbett describes the landscape, the forests and the fauna so well, that the whole scene is up in front of you, it's like you are trailing the Man-Eater.
