Tree Tops by Jim Corbett (Corbett meets the Queen) w/ an introduction by Malcolm Hailey | Audiostory 

Thank you for your fine treatment of the late Jim Corbett. It brought back precious memories of a man who had a profound effect on my life. You see I met him as a young boy in England in 1952. I was just a lad of seven when we met. I was living with an aunt at that time. She and her late husband were close friends of his. Both Jim and her husband served in the British army in India her husband was killed during the war and Jim came to visit. I spent many hours listing to his tales of India of its people and wild life. When he left I was a change boy. I was determined to follow in his foot steps. He gave me a collection of his books, which he signed, and they have become prized possession, also photos of India which he took himself, but most of all he left me with a profound interest in India and its wildlife. I am an old man now but my memories of him and his stories are as vivid as they were then. He was indeed a unique man who lived a splendid life. 😮😮

Wow so Jim Corbett met the queen in person? She must have been one of the last surviving people to have seen Corbett in flesh. Time truly is undefeated!

Two class acts in this story - Queen Elizabeth and Jim Corbett ❤

As usual an exceptional reading. Thank you so much.

Jim Corbett and the Queen. Love love love ♥️🖤 ♥️ such a poignant time in history

Thank you as always, this story and your timing is perfect due to the passing of queen Elizabeth. Thanks again

Jim Corbett was friends with many of the famous people of the world but he also treasured his many friends that lived in the hill villages just as much. What a true life HERO ! Excellent Narration ! Thanks

This Chanel is greatest thing on RU-vid. I’d never heard of Jim Corbett, these stories are amazing, I listen to them over and over and still am exhilarated and thrilled by the courage of both the hunters fearless pursuit of the man eating tigers and leopards and those animals ability to stay alive by adapting their diet to humans. You can’t help but admire and feel sorry for those magnificent creatures whose will to survive made them adapt to an unfamiliar diet. Nature is amazing, Corbett saved many lives through his hunting and killing of these predators, but these animals have my sympathy and respect for their only fault was trying to live. To think they could be extinct (tigers) in a few decades is sickening.

A priceless account of a historic moment! Thank you for this timely upload. RIP to HM the Queen.

A memorable historic account in your magnificent voice.Thanks for the narrative... 👍

In Australia, I met three elderly people who had lived in India and recalled Jim Corbett reading his stories on radio, and one presented me with his hard copy of 'Maneaters of Kumaon' - a green book with a gold embossed tiger head on the cover.

Thanks!

Loved listening to this in your calming voice. Thank you 🙏 Imagine having Jim Corbett to guard you with a rifle while you sleep peacefully in a forest or Jim Corbett as your personal guide as you take a stroll through the jungle. I think the Queen should’ve written her own book of meeting the master hunter and the slayer of man eaters Jim Corbett!

Heartfelt narration of a sincere gentleman of a historic event!

I was reminded of ‘Treetops’ when i came to know about the queens passing away and was wondering how many of these people who mourn the queen knew about her time in the jungle with our corbett.Now here you are with this chapter and once again reminding everyone how great our corbett was and is….

Thanks , best thing I can think of doing while an hurricane is set to arrive tonight (South Carolina) thanks Mr Singh

I was watching a documentary on NatGeo called India From Above. Dev Patel has done the narration for that and while listening to his narration, I couldn't help but think about your narration of Corbett's stories. What I noticed was common in both your and Dev's narration was the love and passion in each and every spoken word and the manner in which you narrate. Really this is one of the best YT audio channels! Keep up the good work.

I adore listening to you read these fantastic and inspirational documents and biography! You're an excellent narrator! Thank you so much and God bless you!

Wow, I was just browsing through your video list and this video got uploaded right now.

Waited too long for this-Thank you!

Good stuff.

I wonder if Kenneth Anderson was around and got to meet the future queen

Badi der kee maherbaan aate aate... Is baar bahot intezar kiya aur baar baar channel visit kiya

Very apt. Great narration Mr Singh, thank you. Jim's inscription in the guestbook is such a unique and eloquant piece of history.

Your channel is amazing!So many great stories to hear,thank you very much for your hard work. Who do you think was the better hunter, Jim or Kenneth? Its a difficult question but you have a lot of knowledge on this topic.

Jim Corbett knew the British royal family well. He knew they would have harmed that African boy. 😮

Very nice sir! Keep the good work!

What a treat once again! My friend, do you have a Patreon account?
