FOREST LIFE AND SPORT IN INDIA. By Sainthill Eardley-Wilmot, C.I.E.,
lately Inspector-General of Forests to the Indian Government;
Commissioner under the Development and Road Improvement Funds Act.
Fully Illustrated. Demy 8vo., 12s. 6d. net.
"It is always interesting and instructive to hear what a man has to say
about his life's work; and this is doubly the case when the subject
is attractive in itself, and is presented in so charming a form as
Mr. Eardley-Wilmot's book. To the sportsman the first part of the
book, describing work and sport in the United Provinces, will prove of
absorbing interest; and it contains (Chapter IV.) what is perhaps the
best description that has ever been written 'On the Habits of Tigers.'
But there is not a dull page in the whole book."--_Morning Post._

sport found, the adventures met with, and the dangers incurred during

Pacific."--_Morning Post._
