Hamir is a fiercely wild, blue-eyed tiger born in the Park, but eventually declared a man-eater after he killed three humans in dire existential crises and sentenced to a lifetime of confinement."The book is a tribute to the wilderness of Ranthambore and to its wild natives. I am elated to chronicle Hamir's journey and to showcase it to a wider audience. My heart goes out to those who lost their lives and their families. I am equally saddened by the fact that Hamir will never see freedom again but I know him intimately and I know had he not been captured, his rampage would not have ended," said Arjun Anand.Arjun Anand's vivid and enchanting book showcases a convergence of three elements, Ranthambore and its Royal inhabitants, the photographer in him, and journey of the man-eating tiger, Hamir.Arjun fell in love with Hamir at first sight. His obsession of following and chronicling the tiger's life through his lens grew from hours to weeks to years.
