Man-Eaters Of Kumaon

‘It was not only the ripping-yarn action of the stories and the engrossing narratives that held me, I was just as much taken by the man who recounted them. Through the most riveting episodes, his compassionate character and quiet voice seemed personally to speak to me … The book has never paled, never dated, and I have never forgotten its significance or the astonishing, gentle man who wrote it.’
Martin Booth, The Sunday Times
