The Forest And The Field is a book written by The Old Shekarry and published in 1874. The book is a collection of essays and stories about the author's experiences hunting and exploring in the forests and fields of India during the mid-19th century. The Old Shekarry, whose real name was James Henry Lawrence-Archer, was an Englishman who spent much of his life in India and became famous for his hunting skills and knowledge of Indian wildlife.The book is divided into two parts: The Forest and The Field. In the first part, The Old Shekarry describes his adventures hunting tigers, leopards, elephants, and other animals in the dense forests of India. He also shares his observations on the flora and fauna of the forest, as well as the customs and traditions of the local people who live there.In the second part, The Old Shekarry turns his attention to the open fields and plains of India. He writes about his experiences hunting antelope, wild boar, and other game, as well as his encounters with snakes, scorpions, and other dangerous creatures. He also shares his thoughts on the landscape, the weather, and the people who live and work on the fields.Throughout the book, The Old Shekarry writes in a vivid and engaging style, drawing the reader into his world of adventure and exploration. He provides detailed descriptions of the animals he hunts, the landscapes he traverses, and the people he meets, giving readers a glimpse into a bygone era of colonial India. The Forest And The Field is a fascinating read for anyone interested in hunting, wildlife, or the history of India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
