A proud and selfish tree, chosen to form the cross for Jesus's Crucifixion, is humbled as he watches the suffering Jesus endures.
Jim Corbett is world famous for his classic man-eater stories.
However, the three volumes collected here show a very different
side to this remarkable man. In My India, he describes the villages
of the Kumaon Hills, and the customs and lifestyles of the people
he encountered. Jungle Lore is the closest Corbett ever came to
writing an autobiography, combining recollections of his earliest
days with frank views on the need for conservation which were well
ahead of their time. Finally, in Tree Tops, the only book Corbett
set outside his beloved India, he captures the savage beauty of
Kenya's wildlife as well as telling the story of the royal visit of
1952, during which Princess Elizabeth learned she was Queen.
Man-Eaters of Kumaon, The Man-Eating Leopard of Rudraprayag, and
The Temple Tiger and More Man-Eaters of Kumaon, the three classic
collections of Corbett's hunting stories, which vividly bring to
life the drama and beauty of the jungle and its wildlife are here
brought together in a single volume for the first time.
