Book Description
Excerpt from Jungle Life in India, or the Journeys and Journals of an Indian Geologist Although accounts of shooting and sport frequently occur in these pages, I wish it to be understood that I do not profess to write as a sportsman. Such sport as I have had, though it has been of a most varied kind, has been rather incidental to my every-day life than pursued merely for its own sake. The successful pursuit of sport requires, as a general rule, one's undivided attention, and the claims of my work in the wildest and most likely places - where, camp supplies being scarce, frequent moving had to be the order of the day - Often prevented me from availing myself of opportunities for making large bags. For. Those sportsmen who care for something more than numbering the head of game killed - and they constitute, I believe, the majority in India these pages will not, I trust, prove devoid of interest.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Exploring the Jungle Ever since I can remember, I have wanted to go exploring. Indian stories fascinated me. Reading about the Indians I learned to admire their loyalty, bravery, and skill in hunting and fishing. I always wanted to visit primitive Indians and live among them. My husband has been an explorer most of his life. He has shot lions in Africa; the skin of one of them is stretched on the floor of his room. The more my husband told me of his experiences, the more eager I was to go. So you can imagine how excited I was when my husband received a commission from a museum to collect Indian handicraft. From among the primi tive Indian tribes who live in the jungle of British Guiana, we were to collect pottery, beads, feather ornaments, bows and arrows, blowguns, and other articles of ornament and use.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Jungle Trappers: A Tale of the Indian Jungle No use to wait any longer, he told himself. He won't return till morning, so I may as well go to bed. The same old story. Tom has broken another promise, in Spite of his word. It was an hour before dark when he took the rifle away to sell, and instead of bringing the money home he has squandered it on drink. No doubt he is lying now in some foul hole, stupid with liquor. And not a rupee in the house. What is going to become of us I don't know. The business has gone to wreck and min, and I am not fit for anything else, or I should have tried long ago to find employment.
