Wonderful for Tiger lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is a wonderful book for anyone who loves tigers. It is packed with spectacular photos of tigers, most in their natural environment. There are also some pictures of other wildlife & of native peoples.There are pictures of tigers with their cubs, ready to pounce & many close-ups. Sadly, there are others of tigers in captivity. I loved the pictures of the white tigers especially a rare one with orange stripes instead of black. If you can tear yourself away from the pictures the text is equally impressive. The author tells of his adventures in national parks throughout Asia. He also discusses the plight of tigers & other animals of the area being killed for there furs or horns and what is being done to protect them. There is a list of conservationists in the back if you want to help.
Excellent

I thought that this book was remarkable in the explanation of the year of the tiger and with what cultures that it pertains to.
