My Big-Game Hunting Diary From India and the Himalayas

My Big‑Game Hunting Diary from India and the Himalayas (1937) chronicles his 1930 expedition across India and Tibet. A Hungarian aristocrat and former diplomat, Apponyi recounts thrilling tiger hunts—near Hyderabad and in the Terai, including vehicle-assisted chases with the Maharajah of Bikaner. The narrative also details mountain hunts in the Khyber Highlands, where he bagged trophy ibex, markhor, and urial, and on Tibetan frontiers, tracking Ovis ammon, burhel, and Tibetan antelope. Richly illustrated with photos and maps, the diary blends sporting adventure with insightful observations of wildlife and remote landscapes.
