The Last White Hunter - Reminiscences Of A Colonial Shikari by Joshua Mathew
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 7.68 MB
Overview: This is the extraordinary story of Donald Anderson, son of author Kenneth Anderson, and arguably the last of the shikaris from India's colonial past. From hunting tigers and panthers and angling for the mahseer, to being a stunt double in a Hollywood film, and eventually living his last days in penury, Donald Anderson chronicles his life from 1934 to 2014. The book is evocative of another era and brings to life Donald Anderson's story in a Bangalore that is no more. Times change, and Donald may not have achieved the fame his father attained; but his story is interesting in its own way, and Joshua Mathew does justice to his subject in a fair, sympathetic and very readable biography.
This book is Donald's own story, told with the same rare candour and robust humour, which characterise his father's writings. Here is a graphic account of Bengaluru, when it was truly Bangalore : the Anglo-Indian society, its vanishing colonial glory, and, in full measure, the destruction of wildlife by the shikaris from yesteryear.
