Summary of the Book
Man-Eaters of Kumaon, perhaps the best known of Corbett's books, contains ten fascinating stories of tracking and shooting man-eaters in the Indian Himalayas during the early years of the last century. Enlivened by descriptions of flora, fauna, and village life, part of the power of Corbett's writing derives from the maddening faithfulness which he recalls and recreates the smallest details of his hunts. A timeless classic.
