He also includes information on the geography, climate, and wildlife of Ceylon, as well as the cultural and social aspects of hunting in the country. The book is illustrated with numerous photographs and drawings, including images of the animals and landscapes of Ceylon, as well as diagrams of hunting equipment and techniques. Overall, Hunting and Shooting in Ceylon provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of hunting and shooting in a colonial setting, and offers insight into the cultural and natural history of Ceylon during the early 20th century.With Contributions Also By F.
