  Conserving natural habitats and wildlife, protecting forest communities, reducing human-animal conflict, promoting eco-friendly practices—these issues are of increasing importance in twenty-first century India. Interestingly, the triumvirate of Jim Corbett, Verrier Elwin, and Sálim Ali addressed these concerns in the 1940s, much before they featured on the public radar.

Including rare visuals—photographs, line drawings, and sketches—this illustrated edition brings together the life stories of Jim Corbett (1875–1955), India’s most well-known hunter-conservationist; Verrier Elwin (1902–1964), one of the greatest champions of India’s tribal peoples; and Sálim Ali (1896–1987), the celebrated ornithologist. These perennial classics rarely lose sight of the long-term effects of human footprints in the natural world.

The Introduction by acclaimed historian and writer Ramachandra Guha looks at these timeless classics with a contemporary eye. Coloured by the authors’ characteristic charm and verve, anybody enjoying good writing will find this book eminently readable, as also those interested in wildlife and conservation, birdwatching, anthropology, ecology, and the social history of modern India.
