About this listen
Sir Samuel White Baker (1821-1893) was a British engineer, explorer, officer, naturalist, big-game hunter, and writer. Man-Eating Tigers of India originally appeared in his 1891 book on big-game hunting titled Wild Beasts and Their Ways. Focusing on the author’s tiger-hunting exploits, the work includes a detailed description of the tiger’s habits and instructions on how to organize and conduct a safe and successful hunt. This chore of putting an end to man-eating tigers seems to have been the burden of Baker. The work concludes with a riveting narrative of an actual case of hunting and eliminating a troublesome tiger.

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.

Her tracks now–as she carried away the girl–led into the wilderness of rocks, some acres in extent, where the going was both difficult and dangerous. The cracks and chasms in between the rocks were masked with ferns, blackberry vines, and a false step, which might easily have resulted in a broken limb, would have been fatal.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

After 17 years - and countless broken bones and broken promises - she knows her window to compete in figure skating is coming to a close. But when the offer of a lifetime comes in from an arrogant idiot she's spent the last decade dreaming about pushing in the way of a moving bus, Jasmine might have to reconsider everything.

The bestselling fitness book for men who want to gain 25-35 pounds of lean muscle and lose as much fat or more in just 3-5 hours per week—and without giving up delicious foods or doing grueling workouts. Is Bigger Leaner Stronger a body building book that can help you pack on brain-shrinking amounts of muscle in 30 days flat? No. Is it a fitness nutrition book full of dubious diet and exercise “hacks” and “shortcuts” for melting belly fat faster than a roided hornet? Absolutely not.

He had heard of the Appalachian Trail, but he had never seriously considered attempting to hike all 2,184.2 miles of it. Suddenly he found himself asking, Could he do it?

Cow-Eatung Tigers of India
I paid only $7 for this title and still felt disappointed. Narrator sounds like a desktop computer reading someone's daily "hunting" notes. Let me save you time and summarize this book for you, "Tigers killed some cattle. We ride elephants, they were supposed to be well trained, the gun wavered, I still killed the tigers, the end". Unlike Jim Corbette who hunted ATUAL Man-eaters, this was just a "sportsman" who killed tigers, that were considered nuisance cattle killers. 1 man died bc he was mauled during a beat, where they shot any big cat they saw, not hunt down the specific man eaters. This was NOT a book about hunting, man-eaters, this was a dry, detail-less book of the wonton slaughter of big-cats. Read Jim Corbetts books!
