Publisher's Summary
Most of Jim Corbett's books contain collections of stories that recount adventures tracking and shooting man-eaters in the Indian Himalayas. This volume, however, consists of a single story, often considered the most exciting of all Corbett's jungle tales. He gives a carefully detailed account of a notorious leopard that terrorized life in the hills of the colonial United Provinces. This story represents Corbett's most sustained and unique effort.

Superb book, narration is dull!
This is one of my favorite books which is filled with exciting adventures. But the narration is so dull, it changes the flavour of this book.

An outstanding dedication and commitment of a British officer during British India to be saviour of Indian peasants
Hats off to a man who had almost bet his life for the cause of saving innocent Indian peasants of Garhwal the present day Uttarakhand against the demonic man eating leopard of Rudraprayag that killed and savoured hundreds of innocent people for over 8 years.
What inspired awe over his commitment was his courage, determination, sacrifice,endurance and immense faith and hope to eliminate the evil spirit of those people nearly a decade

Timeless classic but narrated poorly...
The book is a favourite of mine and have read it countless times. So no doubts on the story. But what is with the accent switches during narrration of portions supposed to be spoken by "natives"? Found that extremely unsettling. Narrator needed to do a better job.

interesting
Good story, the narration made it interesting. Showcases how powerful, cunning and terrorizing the man-eater was.

In 1918-1926, there lurked a danger in Garhwal area of Radraprauag, Kedarnath, a famous place of pilgrimage in India. A man eater leopard became a man eater and took many people from surrounding villages. The tale is a narration of experience to hunt it down after many near misses by none other than Jim Corbett, a veteran, and I enjoyed it. I felt for author as well as leopard too, though :) I confess, I got this book on audible, so I ended up listening to it rather than reading it, which I would have preferred more. The narration was simple though and I had no problem giving an interested ear to the book. This was my first experience too, 'listening' to a full book and I am glad I selected this title. The author however was superb and his description of experiences is one of a kind. 4 stars.
