Soft cover. Zustand: As New. Contents: 1. The accomplice. 2. The vagrants. 3. The helpless. 4. The beneficiaries. Jungle fowls and coucals can be found slinking about in the undergrowth like guilty children, ready to make a run for it if discovered. Partridge convoys move across the forest floor like camouflaged soldiers that believe in using element of surprise as the best form of defence. They can make you jump out of your skin by materializing out of nowhere from the very brush that you were observing intently. Chital herds of fifty strong can be seen cropping fresh grass on the river bank with dainty young ones in tow. If you try to get close enough to appreciate their aesthetically formed bodies, they would take exception to your uncouth act like young maidens in a market place. After giving you a disapproving look from their lovely eyes, they would move away oozing even more grace to ensure that you remain enticed Indian jungles are vanishingNot just from our land but from our story books too.

Sanderson died in 1892, shortly after marrying. Rudyard Kipling is thought to have based the character "Petersen Sahib" on him.
