Ghond er en indisk jæger, der ser tilbage på sin barndom og unge år. Fra det første møde med en giftslange fortæller Ghond om både ydmyge og dramatiske begivenheder i en lille landsby. Den unge Ghond lærer at jage i junglen og omgås de vilde dyr, der bor i den. Men livet handler også om rådsmøder i landsbyen, hvor de ældste i samfundet tager stilling til stridigheder og andre problemer. "Jægeren Ghond" er en af Dhan Gopal Mukerjis bedste bøger, som han skrev for at introducere engelsktalende læsere til indisk kultur og hverdagsliv. Dhan Gopal Mukerji (1890-1936) var en indisk forfatter, der hovedsageligt skrev børnebøger. Trods at han først lærte engelsk sent i sit liv, skrev han på engelsk og var passioneret omkring at bringe en forståelse af det indiske samfund til USA. Mukerji skrev i en særlig blanding af poetisk og udtryksfuldt sprog, der i 1927 bidrog til at han blev tildelt John Newberry-medaljen for sin bog "Gay Neck: The story of a Pidgeon".
