Excerpt: ... just as we were passing the Bazaar guardroom, where the road was a mass of embedded flints, thought fit, whilst going at a hand-gallop, to come down on his head and both knees. I was too well used to this sort of thing to utter any exclamation; and, as the clumsy brute recovered itself and performed this ruinous feat almost in its stride, my companions, who were a few yards in front of me, never so much as saw the catastrophe. We continued our onward career till daylight broke, and then my two comrades remarked that my steed's knees were covered with white dust: this appearance, however, was caused by the smashed sinews which were spread over his dreadful wounds. I went on, however, the same as if nothing had happened, till we arrived on the banks of a deep artificial canal called, if I remember rightly, the Fuleli; The Indus was very full just now; so this stream had also risen to such a height that our horses had to swim it with us--of course, on their backs. Therefore, if ladies are to be of the party, it would be well to arrange beforehand for the passage of tributaries of the great river that may happen to be in flood. On this occasion we were not thus graced; so that we all enjoyed the bath--none more so than my two large English dogs, who were already sensible of the rays of the rising sun. The ground now was free from stones and very pleasant for galloping. As we emerged from the water on to the new plain, my hounds caught sight of a pariah-dog about the size of a collie, and at once chased it to the door of a hut whence an aged and withered crone rushed forth armed with a long and formidable stake called a "lathi."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The figure of the white hunter sahib proudly standing over the carcass of a tiger with a gun in hand is one of the most powerful and enduring images of the empire. This book examines the colonial politics that allowed British imperialists to indulge in such grand posturing as the rulers and protectors of indigenous populations. This work studies the history of hunting and conservation in colonial India during the high imperial decades of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. At this time, not only did hunting serve as a metaphor for colonial rule signifying the virile sportsmanship of the British hunter, but it also enabled vital everyday governance through the embodiment of the figure of the officer–hunter–administrator. Using archival material and published sources, the author examines hunting and wildlife conservation from various social and ethnic perspectives, and also in different geographical contexts, extending our understanding of the link between shikar and governance.
