Summary, etc How would you feel if there is a sound of anklets following you in the dark wilderness? What would you do if there is an attacking panther a few feet oway and you are sitting with an empty rifle? How would you react when you've seen someone commit suicide in a well and you hear at night sounds of well's Persian wheel revolving when the wheel is still?<br/>How does one define the real-life encounters compiled in this book as jungle stories? They surely malle for an interesting read, offer a peep into the times when man and animal were trying to co-exist, with perhaps man becoming more resourceful even though remaining in the awe of the mesmerising vast thick greens inhabited by tigers, panthers and others of their kith and kin. But the stories here are not only a chronicle of adventure encounters. A potent theme of busting many a myth pertaining to the ideas of ghost sightings by the layman in the villages and the jungles also runs parallel thus adding new twists, some light and some not-so-light, to the narrative. A delightful read which also provides a glimpse into the psychology of why many hunters ended up being distinguished conservationists.
