‘Tree Tops' is the last of Jim Corbett's books, and the only one not set in India. Written shortly before his death in 1955, it is the story of the then Princess Elizabeth's visit to Tree Tops in Kenya in 1952, where Corbett was then living.
Corbett describes the scenes witnessed by Her Majesty the Queen (on her last day as Princess Elizabeth) and her husband during their visit to the famous hunting lodge. It is a fascinating story, written in true Corbett fashion of the spontaneous exhibition of wildlife in its natural setting provided for the Royal Party by the elephants, baboons, and other forest creatures.
With an introduction by Lord Hailey and illustrations by Raymond Sheppard.
