First Edition. Revered in Indian religion and culture, coveted for its ivory tusks, the majestic Asian elephant has captured the fascination of humans for more than four thousand years. In an effort to shed light on this regal animal and its unique relationship with humankind, author Stephen Alter traveled around the world to ex…plore its natural home and its place in history and myth. Alter's search takes him from the depths of wildlife preserves, to a tempting elephant auction, to a dazzling festival dedicated to Ganesh the elephant-headed god. Elephas maximus is as important to modern India as it was centuries ago. Yet conservationists are fighting to preserve its endangered habitat as settlements expand, and ivory poaching has threatened generations of elephants until tuskless males may be all that survive. Charting the elephant in history, art, religion, and folklore, Alter draws a vivid, gorgeously written portrait of its past and its troubled present while offering hope for its future; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 320 pages; Description: 320 p. : ill. , map ; 22 cm. Includes bibliographical references (p. [313]-320). Subjects: Asiatic elephant 1 Kg.

Octavo,320 pp.black and white photographs, fine copy in dustwrapper. Revered in Indian religion and culture, yet coveted by poachers for its ivory tusks, the Asian elephant has lived, worked, and even fought side by side with humans for 4,000 years. Stephen Alter first encountered Elephas maximus when he was a child, and travele…d every corner of India to create this unabashed tribute. He finds conservationists fighting to protect the elephants' habitat, mahouts who are as close to their elephants as they are to their own families, and even ivory poachers, whose ongoing assault on the animals may be contributing to the evolution of tuskless males.
