Jim Corbett’s final work is memoir recounting Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s February 5–6, 1952 visit to Treetops Hotel in Kenya. From his vantage in the treehouse, Corbett vividly describes the wildlife—elephants, rhinos, waterbuck, baboons, warthogs—and converses with the royals about personal and exotic topics before delivering the news of the King’s passing the next morning. The tone is reflective, understated, and atmospheric—a fitting farewell from a renowned naturalist who bore witness to a royal succession under the cover of the African night.

Jim Corbett

Edward James Corbett, commonly known as Jim Corbett, was a British-Indian hunter, conservationist, and author. He was celebrated for his contributions to wildlife conservation and his remarkable stories about tracking and hunting man-eating tigers and leopards in India. Born in Nainital, in the Kumaon region of India, Corbett developed a deep love for nature and wildlife from a young age. He gained fame for hunting man-eaters that posed a threat to local villages, earning a reputation as a skilled tracker and marksman. His notable works include Man-Eaters of Kumaon, where he recounts his hunting experiences and the challenges faced by local communities due to predatory animals. Corbett's legacy continues to inspire wildlife enthusiasts and conservationists, making him a significant figure in both hunting literature and environmental advocacy.
