  1. Virender Singh Rajpurohit

    This book provides a unique prespective, however, the author’s tone may not be for everyone.

  2. Nilesh Vashisht

    Informative and detailed! Learned a lot about the history of Indian wildlife conservation.

  3. Mayank Raj

    Important, but slightly boring. I struggled with the writing style.

  4. Manish Chauhan

    Offers crucial insights. Wish it had a broader scope of perspectives from local communities.

  5. Srinivasa Rao Vasantula

    A great book for someone who wants to deep dive into the history of wildlife conversation.

  6. Parjeet Singh

    Informative but heavy on legislation. Needed more stories about the animals themselves.

  7. Navneet Kumar

    Disappointed. Expected more focus on the animals. Too much political focus. Good intention, poor execution

  8. Harsh Hasija

    An eye-opening account. Ranjitsinh’s experience shines through. Would have liked more personal anecdotes.

  9. Ojasvi Singh

    Interesting to learn about conservation in India, but the book was dry at times.

  10. Saksham Verma

    A little academic, but comprehensive. A valuable resource for conservationists and researchers alike.

  11. Hemant

    A vital contribution to the field. Offers a unique insider’s view. A little repetitive in places.

  12. Munulu Ringa

    An important book, detailing the successes and failures of conservation efforts in India. Dry in some parts.

  13. Mohit Ghai

    Ranjitsinh’s dedication is inspiring. The book is comprehensive but could use better editing.

  14. Pragya

    Important perspective on wildlife conservation. I wish there was more focus on the current challenges faced by local communities.

  15. Sanjay Irani

    Not the most engaging writing style, but the content is important and well-researched.

  16. Keshav R Gupta

    An alright read. Focus on the history, not the wildlife. Disappointed by that.

  17. Mriganka Dutta

    A must-read for anyone interested in Indian wildlife. The historical context is well-presented. Some parts are bit dense.

  18. Devesh Sharma

    Ranjitsinh’s passion is evident throughout the book. An insightful, though sometimes academic, read.

  19. Simran Bansal

    Offers a compelling narrative. Some sections are little slow but overall a worthwhile read.

  20. Pallav Agarwal

    A fascinating look at India’s conservation history. Ranjitsinh’s insights are invaluable, but the writing style felt a bit dry at times.

  21. Jiju M Santhosh

    An excellent overview. A bit dense and difficult to read but worth the effort.

  22. Aayush Mehul Shah

    Insightful account. A lot of information to digest but well worth the time for the reader.

  23. Gouri Sreekumar

    Good information, but sometimes reads like a textbook. I struggled to stay engaged at certain points.

    Excellent historical overview. The details regarding the Wildlife Act were particularly interesting.
