Falconry is one of the most demanding sports. It requires patience, intuition and skill in the training of a hawk, craftsmanship in the making and tooling of the equipment, and knowledge of the countryside and what the hawk hunts. This book is an in-depth study of this skillful sport, and explores the formation of the relationship between man and hawk. It covers the history of falconry, falconry today, equipment, birds, and more. It also features a section containing general useful information, such as a hawk who is too heavy will not fly. Highlighting the engaging text are an abundance of clear black & white photographs. This excellent book is a must for anyone wanting to get into falconry, or just has an interest in this demanding sport.
