To the Elephant Graveyard: A True Story of the Hunt for a Man-killing Indian Elephant - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
On India's North-East frontier a killer elephant is reported to be on the rampage. Local authorities call in one of India's last licensed elephant killers. Reading about the ensuing hunt in a Delhi newspaper, Tarquin Hall flies to Assam to investigate, convinced that no elephant could be guilty of murdering farmers.
However as he discovers that the country's elephants have lost their habitat and are at war with the local population, he comes to understand that though a victim of human cruelty, the cunning man-killer is not innocent either. Stalking Assam's paddy fields, he has murdered dozens of farmers, crushing their bodies and mutilating them.
A wonderful adventure story, To the Elephant Graveyard is also a telling fable of man's failure to understand and respect his environment and of nature fighting back.
Revue de presse
A lively, engaging and often exciting Indian travel book (Robert Carver, Times Literary Supplement)
Richly observed and brilliantly written, this book combines travel narrative with a thrilling plot that is hard to put down (Louise Earl, Daily Express)
A masterful piece of writing, full of suspense and crisis of plot...Above all, Hall is to be congratulated on writing a book that promises humour and adventure, and delivers both (Spectator)
This remarkable book is more than just a ripping yarn: it is also a beautifully observed, richly textured portrait of a little visited corner of India...A wonderful book that should become a classic (Daily Mail)
