Condizione: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1986). (1954) 1986 new edition. 8vo (145 x 222mm). Pp251. B/w photographs, green end-papers. Black boards with gilt tiger's head on upper board, spine titled in gilt. Very good copy in dust-wrapper. This is Kenneth Ander…son's detailed and instructive account of life and wildlife in the jungles of Northern India, hung around naratives of tracking down man-eating tigers, panthers, leopards and elephants. "It must not be imagined, however, that the forests of India are always stocked with man-eating tigers and leopards, or rogue elephants. Generally they do not exist, and the jungles are then safer to wander in than any busy street of a capital city, where the possibility of being run over by motor traffic at any moment is considerable. Further, the beauties of nature, of the flowers, insects, birds and animals - the glories of an Indian jungle dawn [and so on.] and the sense of nearness to Nature and to God, fill the wanderer with an assurance that he has at last found a home, from which he will not willingly be torn." Chapters include: The man-eater of Jowlagiri; The spotted devil of Gummlapur; The striped terror of Chamala Valley; The Hosdurga-Holalkere man-eater; The rogue elephant of Panapatti; The man-eater of Segur; The man-eater of Yemmaydoddi; The killer of Jalahalli; The hermit of Devarayandurga; Byra, the Poojaree; The tigers of Tagarthy. .

Not illustrated. Fine new copy. ".In this book the concentration is upon panthers rather than tigers, a very different animal in his habits an…d quite different to deal with. But there are tigers as well, snakes and a great bull bison that survived a titanic battle with a tiger. These are no mere hunter's stories: thrills there are, but difficulties too, failures and disappointments. But the author, who has spent a lifetime in trying to understand the minds of jungle creatures, takes us into his confidence and explains the methods by which he has been able to rid the remoter [areas] of India of some of their most terrible enemies. In doing so he builds up a vivid picture of the forest scene, which no reader is likely to forget." Chapters include: A panther's way; The man-eating panther of the Yellagiri Hills; Old Munuswamy and the Panther of Magadi; The Black Panther of Sivanipalli; Snakes and other jungle creatures; The killer from Hyderabad; The Big Bull Bison of Gedesal; The maned tiger of chordi; The man-eater of Pegepalyam. .

Condizione: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Paperback, 2002). (1976) 2018 reprint of 2002 Rupa paperback edition. 8vo (139 x 214mm). Ppx,200. Not illustrated. Fine new copy. Reminiscences of adventure and sport in the Indian jungles. Published two years after Anderson's death,…this book was put together by editor, Malcolm Barness, after trawling through Anderson's extensive manuscripts and notes. "Kenneth Anderson .was of the sixth generation of Scotsmen resident in India. They had lived, worked and died there, and had rarely gone away. .Kenneth himself had only once been to Scotland; he did so because his family thought that perhaps he ought to train for some profession - in fact as a chartered accountant - that would be of use in either land." The attentive reader of Anderson's stories of life in the jungle will quickly guess how long he actually spent training in Edinburgh. Anderson remained in India after independence, highly unusual even among families as firmly and long-established as his. This collection of stories includes the post-independence period. Anderson died in 1974. Chapters include: A night in Spider Valley; The medical lore of India; Occult lore and other matters; Some Indian sanctuaries; The Annabiddhalla Tigress; In a jungle long ago. .

Not illustrated. Fine new copy. Anderson recounts Indian hunts after the Kempekarai tiger, the Sargam panther and elephant in the Gerhe…tti region and other adventures. "I write these stories not only in the hope that they may afford some degree of pleasure to the adventurous, but that they may also indicate what the conditions of living, in and near the great forests of India, were once like, and to show too that one of the greatest opportunities that any individual could desire, of showing his skill and perseverance in the fine sport of 'Shikar', is now in the process of vanishing forever." (From the introduction). .
