Comments

Tim: When I saw Dane Huckelbridge's book online about Jim Corbett's hunt for the Champawat man-eating tiger, I wanted to purchase and read it. I enjoy reading anything about the man I've admired for over 50 years since reading Corbett's thrilling book "Man-eaters of Kumoan." I also wanted to compare Dane's account of the hunt with mine in my dramatized biography, "Jim Corbett, Master of the Jungle" published by Safari Press.
Huckelbridge is a very accomplished writer who uses exemplary prose. His extensive research, interviews, and travels that went into this book are admirable. He devotes most of the book defining the causes that have led many tigers resort to eating human flesh, to include injury, old age, insufficient natural prey, and loss of habitat
Habitat loss and human population growth are the primary problems hurting tiger survival in the wild. India's population was about 250 million people in 1900. Today it is around 1.5 billion people, or seven times greater. India's land area is roughly one-third of the United States, which currently has about 340 million people. Imagine 1.5 billion people compressed into one-third of the U.S.! Allowing...

Amazon Customer: I was fascinated by the abilities of tigers, but the historical context that explained the rise of a tiger to man eater. Insights into colonialism and the natural balance disrupted by man’s greed

Hermann Guenther: A fine book written in historical context, yet thrilling like a mystery, and inspirational in terms of conservation and what one modest man has done for saving lives of people as well as of the species that terrorized terrorized them. A great treatise about man vs. nature. You both cheer for the killing of the beast while feeling sorry for it. I had no idea this book would be so good. I read it in just three days.

CASEY CHARLES: The book is great, well worth the money. It was just thrown in a box that was too big so it rattled around. One corner was bent.

Cathy G. Cole: Part social history, part natural history, part conservation treatise, part detective story, No Beast So Fierce is a comprehensive description of the reign of terror one tigress had over sections of Nepal and India at the turn of the twentieth century. I had come across mentions of the Champawat Tiger several times in my reading, and since my reading was in fiction, I wasn't aware that this tigress was real. When I stumbled across Huckelbridge's book, I knew I had to read it, especially since tigers are one of my two favorite big cats.

One of the most important things Huckelbridge did for me in his book was to give me a much greater respect for tigers. I knew they were marvelous creatures but didn't really understand just how wonderful they are. A tiger is "nature's nearest equivalent to a short-range missile," and to put what the Champawat Tiger did into perspective, she "very nearly consumed the entire NBA."

Hearing this, many people would want nothing more than to kill the tigress and put an end to the whole thing. Done and dusted. No more thought required. The second important thing Huckelbridge does in No Beast So Fierce is to prove that the...

Lovers of Jim Corbett's books will once again be totally captivated!

Australia on Feb 16, 2020

MP: Makes for an engaging read. Its a critique of colonialism through the unusual story of a man-eating tiger. Though well researched for most part, it does take some liberties with the story and makes some calculated assumptions, as understandably, hard data from 120 years ago wouldn't be forthcoming. The description of the hunt from a third person point of view is refreshing and adds another dimension to the legend of Corbett. It also shines a light on how we're not very different from 120 years ago - despite efforts on conservation, the destruction of habitat and human-animal conflict is increasing everyday.

India on Feb 09, 2020

Shawn D. Osborne: This is a very good book. It provides sufficient background information on the cultural and social significance of the tiger hunt and its context based on the early 1900s period in which the events occurred. The biography of the man who would eventually take down the man-eater is interesting and gives the reader some insight that helps the narrative along.
The final 40 pages are enough to consume the reader to the point where you will not want to put it down.
