First published in 1920, "The Diary of a Sportsman Naturalist in India" contains sporting anecdotes and material selected from the author's notebooks relating to his time spent hunting in India. Offering a fascinating insight into Indian society and wildlife in the early twentieth century, this is a volume not to be missed by hunting enthusiasts. Edward Percy Stebbing (1872 - 1960) was a pioneering British forester and forest entomologist in India. He was one of the first people to highlight the dangers of desertification and desiccation, which he outlined in his book "The encroaching Sahara". Other notable works by this author include: "Injurious Insects of Indian Forests" (1899), "Insect intruders in Indian homes" (1909), and "Stalks in the Himalayas (1911)". Contents include: "The Jungles of Chota Nagpur", "Happy Days as an Assistant", "Beating for Bear in Chota Nagpur-A Station Shoot", "A Hunter's Paradise", "In the Berars-My First Tiger", "Shooting Trips in the Central Provinces-A Fine Shikar Country", "More Experiences in the Central Provinces", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
