Resumen del Editor

A famous hunter. A legendary storyteller. A simple man.

This book talks about the experiences of hunter and conservationist Jim Corbett, during his years in the United Provinces, or what is now known as Uttarakhand. Here we see a different side to Corbett, not as the intrepid hunter of big cats but a man who blends seamlessly with the mountain folk of Northern India.

Join him in his adventures and feel the thrills of hunting; follow him into dense forests as he encounters a dreaded dacoit who has a heart of gold; and enjoy the tales of love, loyalty, and resilience of simple villagers. This skillful storyteller is sure to keep you glued to the book.

Awful narration

The stories are great, but the narration was incredibly bad. They picked an reader with a strong Indian accent, obviously not a native English speaker. That makes no sense. The setting is India, yes; but the book is written in the first person by an Englishman. It wouldn't matter (and would just amount to a weird choice), if not for the narrator's inability to properly pronounce a large number of English words. It isnt completely incomprehensible, but when combined with the strong accent, it makes you have to keep saying, "Wait, what did he say???" It makes for a really annoying listening experience. Some examples:
Con-TEM-plating for contemplating
Nuh-SESS-a-ree For necessary
Him-MOLLY-ya for Himalaya
Reprezen-TAY-tive for representative
Ra-CORD for record (a record number)
Ta-RIBBLE for terrible
Miss happen for misshapen
Hair for heir
Cockie for khaki
Ah-BORRA-jinnal for aboriginal
Bo-DEESE for bodice
Pre-ZENT for present (as in, he was present)
En-doh'd for endowed
b'FELL-oze, Ba-FELLOWS and Boo-FELL-oze for buffaloes
Wally for valley
Pra-DAY-ta-ree for predatory
con, SEE quence for consequence
brake FASTed for breakfasted
Wizzit for visit.
Bar-GAYnz for bargains.
OCK. Urrence for occurrence
In-TERRED for entered.
Willage for village.
RAV-eye-n for ravine

Interesting Culture, Great Information

I liked the story. I liked the detail with which this story was told. I expected more about the struggle with the tiger.

Fantastic stories of a very interesting time and place

Some people may not like the narration due to the accent and mispronunciation of words, but I found it to be appropriate and nice that it was narrated by an Indian person. The mispronunciation of a few words did not detract and was not bothersome like it has been in other books I have listened to. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and the narration.

Excellent wring

Terrible narration, nearly unlistenable. The narrator's accent distracts from Corbetts beautifully written story. At times the narrator even mispronounces words. Just read the book, it'll be a better experience
