In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. First edition, 2 volumes 8vo, pp. xiii, [3], 253, [1], [2] ads; vi, [2], 230, [2] ads; 2 folding maps, 8 lithograph plates (6 in color); original terracotta cloth stamped in gilt and black; old call numbers removed from spines, otherwise a very good, sound and clean copy, each volume bearing the bookplate of Theod…ore "Teddy" Roosevelt, himself a noted hunter and sportsman. Many of Roosevelt's hunting books - 232 to be exact - were given by Roosevelt to his son Kermit, who in turn gave them to his son, Kermit, Jr., who donated them to the Library of Congress in the early 1960s. For the record, this book was not part of that collection. "This is one of the earliest works to describe sport in Burma as well as in India. The author spent considerable time hunting in India and Burma during the 1850s, and describes hunts for tiger, bear, and deer in the Daraconda region of the hilly districts of India's Madras Presidency. There is additional note of shooting rhinoceros, buffalo, and elephant both in Burma and Assam, and accounts of pig sticking. A comprehensive account" (Czech). Czech, Asia, p. 164.
