Land of the Tiger: A Natural History of the Indian Subcontinent
by Valmik Thapar

The Indian subcontinent covers a vast area that includes Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the Himalayan kingdoms of Nepal and Bhutan. Brown and black bears, and the elusive snow leopard prowl in the icy mountains of the Himalaya; wild buffalo, elephants, and rhinoceros roam the northern river plain of India; flying lizards and monkeys fill the rainforests of the Western Ghats. In Land of the Tiger, Valmik Thapar explores the natural history of this extraordinarily diverse region marked by dramatic extremes of climate and terrain, the only place in the world where both lions and tigers reside.

Chapters include:

- Icy Mountains
- Sacred Waters
- Oceans and Islands
- Harsh Deserts
- Wet Forests
- The Tiger's Domain
