THIS
POPULAR
HISTORY OF OUR INDIAN MAMMALS
IS
Respectfully Dedicated
(BY PERMISSION)
TO ONE WHO TAKES A DEEP INTEREST IN ALL THAT
CONCERNS OUR EASTERN EMPIRE,
THE RIGHT HON.
THE EARL OF NORTHBROOK, G.C.S.I.,
LATE GOVERNOR-GENERAL AND VICEROY OF INDIA.


PREFACE.

This work is designed to meet an existing want, viz.: a popular manual of Indian
Mammalia. At present the only work of the kind is one which treats exclusively of the
Peninsula of India, and which consequently omits the more interesting types found in
Assam, Burmah, and Ceylon, as well as the countries bordering the British Indian
Empire on the North. The geographical limits of the present work have been extended
to all territories likely to be reached by the sportsman from India, thus greatly
enlarging the field of its usefulness.
The stiff formality of the compiled "Natural Histories" has been discarded, and the
Author has endeavoured to present, in interesting conversational and often anecdotal
style, the results of experience by himself and his personal friends; at the same time
freely availing himself of all the known authorities upon the subject.
