" 'At last I saw it. The unmistakable glow of the striped coat; the powerful, unhurried, silent walk. It was my first tiger, confidently strolling down the middle of the road. The power and pure beauty of that moment cast a spell which was to become a driving passion in my life in the months and years ahead.' Since his first sighting, Valmik Thapar has been observing and studying tigers at Ranthambhore in Rajasthan for the past nine years. Once the royal hunting preserve of maharajahs, Ranthambhore today is dominated by the spectacular ruins of its ancient fortress, creating a perfect backdrop to this beautiful and romantic region. In the 1970s the Indian Government designated Ranthambhore a Project Tiger Reserve, as part of a desperate campaign to save the tiger from certain extinction in the world. A decade later, Project Tiger has proved astonishingly successful; not only has the population recovered dramatically but, in Ranthambhore especially, the tiger's shy, nocturnal habits have become a thing of the past. Protected within its fragile paradise, the tiger hunts and moves about in broad daylight, almost nonchalant under the gaze of a discreet human audience. Illustrated throughout with over 170 superb photographs in color, Tiger, Portrait of a Predator brings alive the magic of the Ranthambhore wilderness; the electrifying excitement of tracking wildlife through the Indian forest; the thrill of tiger courtship; and the unique hunting prowess of a magnificent male tiger called Genghis. There has never been such a splendid chance to observe and photograph the tiger in its natural environment. The author and photographers of [the book] have taken full advantage of their unique opportunity, and have produced one of the most remarkable natural history books ever published." - from the inner front jacket flap.
