Jim Corbett's stories of tiger-hunting are among the classics of adventure. His career as a hunter of man-eaters - whether leopard or tiger - stretched from 1907 to 1939; and the books in which he described, both these expeditions and his daily life in Northern India were bestsellers. Here is a selection of his writings, taken from, among other, 'Man-eaters of Kumaon', 'My India' and 'Jungle Lore', which will introduce Jim Corbett to a new audience, as well as give renewed pleasure to his old one.
