Description

It is the only comprehensive book on cheetahs in Asia. It traces the cheetah from prehistoric times through history to its ultimate extinction in the Indian subcontinent in the 20th century right until the recent arrival of the animals from Africa in an effort to bring back a lost species. The author has painstakingly traced the animal in prehistoric cave paintings, on coins and in Sanskrit, classical Greek and Latin records, Persian, Urdu, Marathi and Hindi literature, lexicons, Indian paintings and photographs. The book describes the age-old practice of taming the animal, its status in Asia and Africa.
