Review:
Durga Charan Kala spent his life in searching for Corbett stories and the things belonging to him . This life time of association has made this book a treasure trove of facts on" Carpett sahib". Writer's journalistic credentials are reflected in careful collection and arraying of facts and events in the book. The interesting incidents and people provide a kaleidoscope to the reader. Mr. Kala 's love and knowledge of hill people has added to book which is non replicable in any other work. Corbett may be long dead in his kenyan resting place but this book is his befitting memorial. --sandeep badoni Dec 22, 2012
