Much on the sheep, ibex, blue sheep, markhor, goral etc. Maps and photos are especially good. This book has been for years and still is the standard reference work on the Himalayas for hunters. Burrard was one of the authorities on this area. Much of what he wrote still holds true today. "A comprehensive work on big game shooting in the region. Each chapter combines the natural history of the game, the terrain where it will be encountered, and the author's own sporting adventures" (Czech). "One of the more interesting and informative descriptions of hunting in the world's highest mountain ranges" (Thomas).
