Excerpt: ... ture require a guide to lead him to the carcass? Follow me: the Jemmadar knows where to find the Koolgha." a "Come, Master Charles," said Mansfield, as he hastily swallowed a cup of coffee; "shoulder your rifle and march. Our swarthy friend is waxing impatient, and if we ruffle the old Pagan's temper he will show us no sport to-day." Charles promptly obeyed the summons; and our two sportsmen, bringing their rifles to a long trail, followed old Kamah as he stalked into the jungle with rapid strides. At this early hour, when the morning air is still fresh, and the ground sparkling with dew-drops, the tropical forest seems suddenly to burst into life. The woods resound with the buzzing of innumerable insects. The jungle cock and wild peafowl are heard calling to their mates in wild discordant notes. Chattering troops of monkeys frisk amongst the branches overhead, showing their white teeth, and making threatening grimaces at the strange intruders. The startled deer bound across the open vistas of the forest, their bright speckled sides flashing for an instant on the sight, and as suddenly disappearing, like passing meteors. Whilst wandering herds of bison are now on foot, returning slowly from the open glades, where they have pastured during the night, to the thick covers of bamboo, under the shades of which they find an agreeable shelter from the mid-day sun. Having penetrated some distance into the forest, the savage guide suddenly slackened his pace, and, making a sign to his companions to keep silent, glided on in front with the stealthy and noiseless tread of a fox, his ears erect to catch the faintest sound, and his lynx-like eye rolling from side to side, now peering into the dark tangled masses of bamboo, and now roving over the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Captain Walter Campbell, of the 7th Royal Fusiliers was stationed for several years, in a remote part of India, adjoining the Mysore frontier, and in the immediate vicinity of the great chain of Western Ghauts. Given the Regimental nick-name "Jungle Wallah"-A Jungle Man, or Wild Man of the Woods, Campbell wrote of his experiences hunting in this jungle region in his famous 1842 book "The Old Forest Ranger; Or, Wild Sports of India on the Neilgherry Hills, in the Jungles and on the Plains." Nothing on the Neilgherries as they once were has ever surpassed in spirit and vivid presentation "The Old Forest Ranger." The subject is the field-sports of Hindostan-deer-stalking, tiger, bear, elephant, boar, and bison hunting. Campbell was thoroughly master of his subject: that subject is various, full of matter and stirring incident, and well diversified by the rugged scenery of the Neilgherries, the gorgeous magnificence of the Tropical vegetation in the Plains, the atmospheric phaenomena of Hindostan, and the native characters with whom the sportsmen are naturally brought in contact. Campbell's book is full of spirit-stirring adventures and attractive descriptions. Campbell must have been a mighty hunter; but although his hand appears to have been against every wild member of the feline tribes, found in forest jungle, nullah, or mountain chain, yet a more humane gentleman, we dare to say, does not breathe, or one who would speed further and faster to aid his fellow-creature. Indeed his sentiments and sympathies are frequently too tender, at least in the mode of expression for a Nimrod or a patron and practitioner of the deadly tube. But still he has a genius for magnificent and perilous sports; and appears to be as cool as he is intrepid in the extremest moments. Campbell states: "My object in writing the following pages was to present my Readers with a faithful sketch of some of the more exciting Field Sports of India; and, to insure my doing so, I confined myself almost exclusively to the description of such scenes and adventures as either my Brother, or I, or both of us-for we hunted in couples occasionally-have witnessed. The few exceptions which occur to this general rule, are anecdotes which I have had from men, on whose word I could place implicit reliance." However, in order to give a zest to his sporting adventures in the Nilghiri hills of Madras, Campbell worked them up into the form of an adventure, with a pretty heroine and a youthful hero: "My Characters are purely fictitious, and are merely introduced, like the subordinate performers in Van Amburg's exhibitions, to serve as foils to the wild beasts, and to avoid the repetition of that eternal egotistical I, which is so disagreeable in a personal narrative." For example, in describing a real-life run-in with an elephant, Campbell, replacing his own name with the fictitious "Doctor" writes: "...The Doctor, seeing his advantage, began, with all diligence, to climb the tree behind which he had sheltered himself. He was already several feet from the ground, and his arm was outstretched to grasp a branch which would have raised him to a place of safety, when the Elephant, catching a hasty glimpse of him, dashed forward with redoubled fury, twisted his trunk round his legs, hurled him to the ground ..." Campbell was amongst the first to make books on the sports of India as fashionable as they have now become. Moreover, his tales and scenes on the plains, hills and in the jungle read as fresh as when they first saw type.
