Descripción
8vo., First Edition thus, with portrait frontispiece, 3 plates and endpaper maps, neat contemporary inscription on frontispiece recto; orange cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in unclipped, mildly age-soiled dustwrapper, the latter lightly browned on (predominantly white) rear panel. This 'wartime economy' version is the first English edition of this big-game classic, first published in India in 1944 with profits devoted to blinded servicemen of WWII. Corbett's collection of true tales from the Raj is an undisputed keystone of big game hunting. THE UK EDITION IS FAR SCARCER THAN THE US EDITION.
