Booklist
In this colorful volume, third-generation falconer Parry-Jones opens up the fascinating world of keeping and training birds of prey. The text is instructive both as background and as instruction for the aspiring keeper of owls, buzzards, falcons, eagles, and hawks; and the dramatic illustrations of the various birds give the book an appeal that extends beyond the hobbyists who constitute its primary intended audience. Comprehensive and clearly written, this is a fine introduction to falconry and its related fields of endeavor, as well as something of a coffee-table book for readers who appreciate the natural world.
