Bengal Dacoits And Tigers is a book written by Maharanee Sunity Devee that explores the wild and dangerous world of Bengal in the early 20th century. The book is a collection of stories and experiences of the author, who was a member of the aristocratic class in Bengal and had the opportunity to witness the lives of dacoits and tigers up close.Through her writing, Devee provides a vivid and detailed account of the lives of dacoits, who were notorious bandits that terrorized the countryside. She describes their methods, their hideouts, and their interactions with the local people. Additionally, the author also provides insights into the world of tigers, which were common in the region and posed a significant threat to human life.The book is an intriguing read that offers a glimpse into a world that is long gone. It sheds light on the harsh realities of life in Bengal during that time and provides a unique perspective on the lives of those who lived on the fringes of society. The author's writing is engaging and descriptive, making the book an enjoyable read for anyone interested in history, wildlife, or adventure.In the garden, orchard and stables there were tanks and wells so that the supply of water was sufficient for the needs of such a large establishment. In front of the mansion there was a large ornamental tank or lake with white marble steps leading to its waters. Here every evening the men and boys of the family gathered to recreate and enjoy the cooling south breeze, and they were often joined by neighbours, and many a pleasant hour was spent on those marble steps.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
