Story
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.

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

Story
On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Narration is terrible

I have read this book in the past and enjoyed it very much. Unfortunately, the narrator imparted the most odd accents and affect to the cast of characters. Big Jim sounds like a cross between Forrest Gump and Foghorn Leghorn. Many of the female characters have been given a southern belle's inflection, others an almost cockney accent. Almost unlistenable
