Book Description
The third book by the eminent falconer, Ronald Stevens, and written in the articulate and fluid style for which he came to be known. Originally published in 1963, this important falconry book is among the best of its kind. Although, by the author's own admission, "the book is strictly 'utility, '" lacking in illustration or extraneous verbiage, it is, nevertheless, a complete guide to falconry. It is written with such enthusiasm for the sport that beginners and experienced falconers alike will benefit from its contents.
