Wild wonders of Rajasthan

Description

Rajasthan is well known for its history and its magnificent forts and palaces, its ritual celebrations, its handicrafts, colour, pomp and pageantry. Somewhat less known, though equally well documented in general books on wildlife, is the State's undeclared treasure of fauna and avifauna. The geographical variations in the State has provided a distinctive tapestry where wildlife abounds, preserved in a large number of which started as hunting reserves for the former royal families of the State. The book is illustrated with colour plates, photographs taken by naturalists and conservators who have spent several occasions in the wilderness recording these events.
