BULLET AND SHOT 



of conferring with other sportsmen (chiefly military 

 officers) whose experience had in some cases been 

 gained in other parts of India, the fauna of which 

 the writer had never seen. 



With a view to making this book as complete 

 and generally useful as possible, the Author has 

 not confined himself to the Game which he has 

 personally shot, but, for the use of the beginner 

 in Indian Shooting, a brief description of each of 

 the principal game animals of that country not 

 falling within the category of his own experience, 

 has been compiled from other sources, his acknow- 

 ledgments for assistance in this and other respects 

 being due to the following Authors, whose valuable 

 works have been studied and indented upon for 

 various information contained in the present 

 volume : 



General A. A. A. Kinloch's Large Game Shooting, 

 Thibet and Northern India. 



Mr. R. A. Sterndale's Natural History of Indian 

 Mammalia. 



Dr. Jerdon's The Mammals of India. 



Colonel R. Heber Percy, in the Badminton volume
