About The Book: The Man-Eating Leopard of Rudraprayag by Jim Corbett is a gripping true account of Corbett’s hunt for a notorious leopard that terrorized the town of Rudraprayag and surrounding villages in the 1920s. Over the course of eight years, the leopard reportedly killed over 125 people, instilling fear and disrupting daily life. Corbett vividly describes the leopard’s cunning, elusiveness, and nocturnal attacks, as well as the psychological toll on the local population. The book combines suspenseful storytelling with empathy for both the victims and the predator, showcasing Corbett’s skill as a hunter and deep understanding of India’s wildlife and rural life. About The Author: Edward James Corbett (1875–1955) was an Anglo-Indian hunter, naturalist, and author renowned for tracking and killing man-eating tigers and leopards that terrorized villages in Northern India. Celebrated for his deep respect for wildlife and the Indian people, Corbett chronicled his experiences in classics like Man-Eaters of Kumaon, The Man-eating Leopard of Rudraprayag, and The Temple Tiger. His later works, such as My India and Jungle Lore, reflect his love for India’s landscapes, cultures, and rural communities. Far more than a hunter, Corbett was a conservationist ahead of his time, whose writings offer gripping adventure and heartfelt insight into colonial India.
