Julius Barras India and Tiger-Hunting

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. As nothing can be more dreary than life in an Indian military cantonment, it will surprise no one to learn that sporting incidents, such as tiger-shoot ing, and wolf-hunting with greyhounds, will form the chief attraction of the present work. That the facts recorded may prove sufficiently exciting to interest the general reader, and yet so correctly recorded as to afford much useful information to young and con sequently inexperienced sportsmen, is my Object in presenting this work to the public.
