Book Description

About the Book Indian Game," a chapter from William Rice's Quail Tiger, delves into the world of game hunting in India. Rice, a renowned hunter and naturalist, shares vivid accounts of his hunting expeditions, focusing on the diverse and challenging game found in the Indian subcontinent. His narrative combines detailed observations of wildlife with the excitement of the hunt, offering readers a glimpse into the sport's cultural and ecological context. Through engaging storytelling, Rice provides insights into the hunting practices and natural environments of India, reflecting both the thrill of the chase and the author's deep appreciation for the region's wildlife.

About the Author William Rice was a prominent American hunter, naturalist, and author known for his vivid writings on big game hunting. His works, such as Quail Tiger, capture his extensive hunting experiences in India and other regions, blending adventure with detailed observations of wildlife. Rice's narratives are celebrated for their rich descriptions and insights into the cultural and ecological aspects of hunting. His contributions to naturalist literature offer a unique perspective on the challenges and allure of hunting in diverse landscapes.

Preface HAVING written a book called "Tiger Shooting in India," published in 1857, which at the time was not unfavourably received, the Author has now added, in the following pages, full descriptions of very many other kinds of game, both great and small, so that the whole may form a sort of "Guide for Beginners," or "griffin's" vade mecum in the noble art of "Shikar," as well as affording to those at home (who may care for the subject) some idea of the sport obtainable in India. These experiences do not extend beyond the Bom-bay Presidency; but that, being nearest to England, will probably form the first "happy hunting ground" of most new arrivals, or sportsmen strange to the country. Thinking that possibly such a work may soon be in demand (regard being had to the increasing scarcity of game at home), a beginning shall at once be made, without further apology to the reader of these random notes.
