Book Summary

The Call of the Man-Eater is a thrilling collection of true-life jungle stories from Kenneth Anderson, a legendary hunter and naturalist who operated in the forests of southern India. This book specifically revolves around his encounters with man-eating tigers and leopards, who had turned to attacking humans due to old age, injury, or encroachment of their habitats.

The book is a mix of danger, survival, and respect for nature, portraying both the thrill of the hunt and the sadness of having to kill these majestic but dangerous creatures.

About the Author

Kenneth Anderson (1910–1974) was a British-Indian writer and hunter, born in India. He wrote many books about his adventures in the jungles of South India. His style is detailed, atmospheric, and respectful, often focusing more on the story and setting than just the kill. He is often compared to Jim Corbett, another famous hunter-writer.
