I had no knowledge about Jim Corbett when I first read his "Man Eaters of Kumaon" and was impressed for the rest of my life. Most amazing for me is how many talents this man had. Of course, he was a great hunter, and he was a great anturalist who started campaigning to save a tiger earler than others (one of tiger species is named after him), and he also had a greatest writing talent, but most importantly he was a great human being, loved primarily for his greatest human heart, and trusted as very few humans had been trusted. I believe his name is very much underrated. Thanks to Jim Corbett Assiciation for all its efforts to give a justice to the memory of this great Man!
Man with many talents
