First USA Edition
Kenneth Douglas Stewart Anderson (8 March 1910 – 30 August 1974), known primarily as Kenneth Anderson or as KDS Anderson, was a Scottish-Indian writer, nature enthusiast, conservationist, and ethical hunter who lived and worked in South India. He authored highly-regarded books based on his experiences hiking, camping, and hunting in the Indian jungles.
Anderson's brave and skillful hunting of menacing man-eater leopards and tigers earned him the nickname Corbett of the South, in reference to his older North Indian counterpart Jim Corbett. As an ex-hunter expert on wild animals' behaviour, he was a trailblazer in wildlife tourism in Bangalore, and is admired as a pioneer conservationist in southern India
