The book outlines the best place to visit to experience the notable wildlife and beautiful landscapes, together with practical tourist information and photographic advice.

Despite it's unmistakable striped coat, the tiger remains a mysterious being, glimpsed fleetingly before it melts into its dense habitat. This richly illustrated work brings us close to Asia's iconic big cat, revealing how it lives and how it interacts with others of its own kind. It also considers the threats to the tiger and its habitat, and examines the measures being taken to save this magnificent creature from extinction.
