"Sport In India And Somali Land With Hints To Young Shikaries" recounts the hunting expeditions and sporting adventures of J. S. Edye in the early 20th century. The book offers a glimpse into the wildlife and landscapes of India and Somali Land (present-day Somalia) during a period of colonial influence and exploration. Edye provides observations on local customs, the challenges of hunting in diverse terrains, and advice for young hunters, known as shikaries.
The narrative combines elements of travelogue, sporting guide, and historical record, capturing the spirit of adventure and the interactions between the hunter and the hunted. This work will appeal to readers interested in historical accounts of hunting, colonial-era travel, and the natural history of India and East Africa.
