ABOUT
A spine-chilling dispatch from the princely shikar camps of 1920s India.
The "father of the U.S. Air Force," Brigadier General William "Billy" Mitchell, steps out of the cockpit and into the dense jungles of the Central Provinces. Guest-hosted by the Maharaja of Surguja, this 1924 classic chronicles a grand, elephant-supported expedition against apex man-eaters that were terrorizing regional villages.
Complemented by historic field photography, Mitchell’s suspenseful prose delivers a rare, riveting window into the logistics, danger, and colonial traditions of early 20th-century big-game hunting.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and fine drawings.
Includes a few vintage adverts.
