Books on India hunting?
I have never read any of the books by Jim Corbet on hunting in India are they worth obtaining? Are there better authors?


Never rode a bull, but have shot some.

His collection is absolutely one of the best out there. You will enjoy every word in his books. I suggest you buy the Corbett collection from Safari Press. It is fantastic...

Yes, yes, yes... Corbett's books are well worth reading in my opinion. You will definitely not be disappointed.

I have to say, I do enjoy buying the older books to read. Not because I'm a collector, as I'm not, but just because they seem to have a whole history of their own.

Plus you can sometimes pick them up for pennies Wink
