Synopsis
Excerpt from How I Shot My Bears, or Two Years Tent Life in Kullu and Lahoul
AT a time when women have been busy ex ploring Central Africa and the North Pole, it needs some courage to put on paper a record of wanderings and doings, the only merit of which lies in the fact that their scene was somewhat off the beaten track. Fellow-sportsmen, however, J who have tasted the joys of Indian she'kar, will fully sympathize with me in my desire to recall to them such delights, as well as to place before the less fortunate some pictures of the lights and shades of sport and camp-life in the Central Himalayas.
