Jungle Tales (Classic Reprint) by B. M. Croker Pdf

Excerpt from Jungle Tales Alas my thrifty little scheme was knocked on the head by a letter from my cousin Algy Langley. He is the eldest son of an eldest son; I am the younger son of a second son: and whereas I am a sub. In an infantry regiment, grilling on the plains of India, and working for my daily bread, Algy has run out for one cold weather, merely in search of variety and amusement. Why on earth should relations think it necessary to meet on one particular day, in order to eat a tasteless bird and an indigestible pudding?

Excerpt from Jungle Tales of Tarzan Just to have seen him there, lolling upon the swaying bough of the jungle-forest giant, his brown skin mottled by the brilliant equatorial sunlight which percolated through the leafy canopy of green above him, his clean limbed body relaxed in graceful ease, his shapely head partly turned in contemplative absorption and his intelligent, grey eyes dreamily devouring the Object Of their devotion, you would have thought him the rein carnation Oi some demigod of Old.

Jungle Tales of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs Pdf

Jungle Tales of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs The sixth book of Tarzan, King of the Jungle. This is actually a collection of several short stories all about the times when Tarzan was a young boy and a teenager being raised by the great apes. The young Tarzan was unlike the great apes who were his only companions and playmates. Theirs was a simple, savage life, filled with little but killing or being killed. But Tarzan had all of a normal boy's desire to learn. He had painfully taught himself to read from books left by his dead father. Now he sought to apply this book knowledge to the world around him. He sought for such things as the source of dreams and the whereabouts of God. And he searched for the love and affection that every human being needs. But he was alone in his struggles to grow and understand. The life of the jungle had no room for abstractions.

The Jungle Book (Classic Reprint) by Rudyard Kipling Pdf

This book contains the collection of Rudyard Kipling short stories known as The Jungle Book. The most famous of these are about Mowgli the wolf boy, and have been adapted for comics, stage, film and television many times. Mowgli's adventures in the forest and battles with the tiger Shere Khan are exciting and should be a part of any child's reading material. The other stories are shorter, but just as entertaining. Rikki-tikki-tavi, about a brave mongoose and his battle against snakes, is a particular favourite of many and The White Seal and Toomi of the Elephants are well loved and enjoyable too. After each story comes a poem or song about the same topic. These are highly moral stories, which have lead some to conclude that they were based on current events of the times, but there is no evidence of that from the author himself and they were probably written for his daughter. Rudyard Kipling knew a great deal about the animals of which he wrote and this comes through in the details of their lives in these tales. This book thoroughly deserves the devotion it receives from its fans. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Jungle Tales by Howard Anderson Musser Pdf

Excerpt from Jungle Tales: Adventures in India You would often feel terrified. Tigers, bears, panthers, leopards, and wild boar teem in the jungle, and the Arms Act forbids natives to have firearms. You would feel hungry. Millions of Hindus go through life without once having a full stom ach. You would feel hopeless. Out of a thousand Hindus only fifty ever learn to read. Almost all are desperately poor - average income, five cents a day. As there is no democracy in India, if you were born low down in the social scale you must remain there. A rigid caste system, centuries old and sanctioned by the Hindu re ligian, forbids you to rise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Jungle Trappers by William Murray Graydon Pdf

Excerpt from The Jungle Trappers: A Tale of the Indian Jungle No use to wait any longer, he told himself. He won't return till morning, so I may as well go to bed. The same old story. Tom has broken another promise, in Spite of his word. It was an hour before dark when he took the rifle away to sell, and instead of bringing the money home he has squandered it on drink.

Jungle Tales of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs Pdf

Jungle Tales of Tarzan: Large print by Edgar Rice Burroughs From safety points in the trees the great apes watched, screaming hatred at Sheeta and advice at Tarzan, for the progenitors of man have, naturally, many human traits. Teeka was frightened. She screamed at the bulls to hasten to Tarzan's assistance; but the bulls were otherwise engaged--principally in giving advice and making faces. Anyway, Tarzan was not a real Mangani, so why should they risk their lives in an effort to protect him?

Kabini And The Jungle Stories by AK SINGH Pdf

At the turn of the 19th century in India, more than a million wild animals were trounced under the barrel of the gun, bringing them almost to the brink of extinction. There began one of the most inspirational stories of the crusade from Karapore village at the Kabini river of Mysore in South India. An innovative style of protecting nature gives immense importance to the preservation of wilderness, changing the lives of the aborigines through an instrument of eco-tourism. The book charts the key moments in the fight to conserve the natural wealth of India, which has been the centre of admiration for maharajas, the cynosure of the eyes of all royal princes, eminent military officials and those who set on foot to India during the medieval period, embarking on a journey of incredible stories of wildlife sports such as hunting and shooting. The chronicle gives a fascinating picture of the success story of eco-tourism in Karnataka. It offers an atmospheric and entertaining account of the lives of Indian princes, early lifestyles of viceroys, kings, czars and sovereign monarchs with joyful hunting expeditions of emperors, maharajas and enjoyable sports of diplomats and bloodhound hunters, the British civil servants. In a most vivid and gripping style, the saga records the life of men who lived in the wilderness amidst tribes and aborigines and made them friends, which spread the message of the benevolence of human relationships, love and a deep affection for nature and natural resources. It is a captivating book packed with splendid quotes, entertaining anecdotes, chronicles of pre-independent, innovative, triumphant trials of Khedda operations in the princely states of Mysore and Hyderabad, absorbing tales of the wildlife of India and her natural splendours across the cultural diversity of various tribes, ethnicities and their virtues, beliefs and ethos.
