>>2009045Also, anything by Jim Corbett. He was an army officer in British India tasked with tracking and shooting tigers and leopards who became man-eaters. Some of the tigers he was sent after had killed hundreds of people. He's not some trigger-happy big game hunter either—he has a deep respect for the animals he has to kill and writes about the tragedy of conflict between man and animal that led these creatures to become man eaters and need to be shot. He was a big advocate for conservation and protection of tigers. Pic related is a favorite of mine but anything by him is absolutely gold.
I like books about tigers.
