Synopsis :

" I had spent many nights in the jungle looking for game, but this was the first time I had ever spent a night looking for a man-eater." Man-eaters of Kumon contains ten first-hand accounts of Jim Corbett's jungle encounters. Describing his thrilling campaigns against the Champawat man-eater-- whose attacks have been listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest number of fatalities from a tiger, and the Chowgarh tiger-- who had preyed on sixty-four people, these stories among others have never ceased to enthrall the readers. Corbett's most famous work, this book is a timeless classic.

À propos de l?auteur: Jim Corbett, a British hunter-naturalist and colonel in the British Indian Army, was known for tracking down and hunting man-eating tigers and leopards in the Garhwal and Kumaon regions of the Indian Himalayas in the early twentieth century.
