Honorary Tiger: The Life of Billy Arjan Singh Author: Duff Hart-DavisHardcover 224 pages. Also photos.UK -Publisher: Methuen Publishing Ltd (October 27, 2005) ISBN: 0413775534 US - Publisher: Methuen Publishing (May 1, 2006) ISBN: 0413775534 Synopsis:An affectionate biography of India's renowned 'tiger-man', and one of the world's greatest conservationists. Billy Arjan Singh's has been an extraordinary life by any standards. Born into a prestigious family of Sikh landowners, the young Singh was a relentless hunter and killer of every creature imaginable, until, guided by his conscience and observation of the impact of man on nature, he became one of the most tenacious champions of wildlife India has ever produced. "Honorary Tiger" is an affectionate portrait of a man who has devoted fifty years of his life dedicated to the cause and conservation of wildlife, and in particular, of India's threatened tiger population (which he has written about in books such as "Tiger, Tiger, Prince of Cats" and "Eelie and the Big Cats". Along the way, Singh has encountered official corruption, apathy, and public scorn but has remained a champion of the forest, and it was due to his tireless campaigning that in 1973 Indira Gandhi authorized the creation of India's Dudhwa National Park. He is perhaps most famous for the creation of Tiger Haven, his extraordinary home on the edge of the jungle, where he lives with his tigers and three orphaned leopards. Now in his eighties, he recently received the J.Paul Getty Wildlife Conservation award - a global honor administered by the World Wildlife fund - in recognition of his outstanding contribution to international conservation. A fascinating biography of a unique life, Honorary Tiger is currently a best-selling title in India. Billy Arjan Singh recently received the J. Paul Getty Wildlife Conservation award.
