 loch. Containing descriptions of the country and of the 

 various animals to be found ; together with extracts from a 

 journal of several years' standing. With thirty illustrations

 "An attractive volume, full of sporting adventures in the valleys and 

 forest hills extending along the foot of the Himalayas. Its pages are also 

 interesting for the graphic description they give of the beasts of the field, 

 the cunning instinct which they show in guarding their safety, the places 

 w hich they choose for their lair, and the way in which they show their 

 anger when at bay. Colonel Kinloch writes on all these subjects in a 

 genuine and straightforward style, aiming at giving a complete description 

 of the habits and movements of the game." — British Mail. 



" If Carlyle had ever condescended to notice sport and sportsmen he might 

 probably have invented some curious and expressive phrase for the author 

 of this book. It is the work of a genuine shikari . . . The heads have 

 been admirably reproduced by the photograph. The spiral or curved horns, 

 the silky hair, the fierce glance, the massive jaws, the thick neck of deer, 

 antelope, yak or bison, are realistic and superior to anything that we can 

 remember in any bool^ shelf full of Indian sport." — Saturday llevieio. 



" The splendidly illustrated record of sport. The photo-gravures, es- 

 pecially the heads of the various antelopes, are lifelike ; and the letterpress 

 is very pleasant reading." — Grapliic.
