An Asian hunting heritage book. Excerpts from some of the best and most popular tiger hunting titles from the last 200 years. Authors include: Shakespeare, Pollock, Forsyth, Kennion, Locke, Burton, Corbett, Anderson, Singh, Eardly-Wilmot and others. Areas covered are India, Siberia, Manchuria, China, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Indo-China and Burma. Extensive 7-page bibliography. This seems to be one of the more difficult of the Amwell Press titles to locate and with good reason; Despite the stated limitation of 1000 we were told by the publisher that only 500 copies of this title were ever bound explaining the scarceness of this book.
