The Wild Elephant: And The Method Of Capturing And Taming It In Ceylon is a book written by James Emerson Tennent in 1867. The book provides a detailed account of the wild elephants in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and the methods used to capture and tame them. The author describes the physical characteristics, habits, and behavior of the elephants, as well as their importance in the cultural and economic life of the people of Ceylon. The book also includes detailed illustrations of the different tools and techniques used to capture and tame the elephants. The author’s firsthand experience with the elephants and his extensive research on the subject make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Ceylon, as well as the study of wild animals and their behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
