Go now and pour yourself a hot one...
Oh, wow. Thanks! I remember reading about Col Corbett and the tigers of India first that fired the imagination of a kid from far northern New England before finding these. I finally realized a dream fed by these and Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and went on safari in Tanzania then climbed Kilimanjaro. Magic seeing elephants, lions and such in the wild.

Thé movie was great. Maybe I’ll read the book sometime.

If it was easy, anybody could do it.
The movie was not true to the story.
The Book is Fantastic.
