A turn of the century photograph album containing images of a hunting expedition to Taob, Himachel Pradesh, Western Himalayas, India. The unidentified white hunter - visible in several of the images - mentions in his succinct captions his 'coolies', his shikari (hunting guide), and the huts and bridges built by the expedition. Notably, three of the photographs depict the hunter displaying bear skins, and in another a member of his 'staff' exhibits an ibex head.
