The Tiger

The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and SurvivalThe Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival by John Vaillant

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This book was only ok. I really liked the tiger hunting the people/ people hunting the tiger, but the story could have only been 25 pages. The rest of the book was about Russian myths and beliefs as well as the illegal tiger trade. A lot of the information had such little bearing on the story it was irrelevant. A fact finder would love some of the info, me= I thought it was pointless to the story. If you have watched the movie the Ghost and the Darkness, this is slightly similar but in a totally different climate which adds a whole new element.
