Summary: Like the poetry of earth, the mosaic of Indian game hunting history never ceases to cast a mesmerising spell and enthrall the human mind.

The book presents the art of hunting gorged down from one millennium to another exhibiting different characteristics and facets, pregnant with seductive charm and beauty. 2. From the Stone Age to the odyssey that continued British Raj, it showcases hunting in different moulds shaped in the sands of time. 3. This story is a humble attempt to a tribute to the propounders of that amomentous labour of love that has been completely lost with the passage of time.
