Book excerpt: Excerpt from Falconry: Its Claims, History, and Practice The long letter from an officer serving in India has been gratefully received, and I am sure will be found most interesting. Falconry in the British Isles, with its numerous and masterly drawings, is out of print; but the present work, although it does not follow its pre decessor in giving a figure of each species of hawk used in Falconry, contains several plates from the excellent and well-known pencil of Mr. Wolf, some of which illustrate the implements necessary for the practice of the sport. The very great kindness which I have received from a considerable number of readers during the last few years emboldens me to unmask but I still hope to be recognised in the Field under the old nom de plume of Peregrine.

Book excerpt: This guide to falconry dates to mid-19th century Britain, and explains both the history and practical elements of using birds of prey to hunt wild animals. Raising and training intelligent birds of prey to hunt animals was popular in Europe from the Middle Ages onward. Over the centuries, techniques and practices were refined, with the peculiarities of the various birds used ? be they peregrine falcons, goshawks, sparrow-hawks or otherwise ? investigated by generations of enthusiasts. This history is detailed and supplemented with the author's own practical experience and advice. Gage Earle Freeman was a clergyman who spent some years assigned to India. As a lifelong enthusiast of falconry, Freeman was impressed to behold the practice in India; a culture where hunting with birds of prey had been a tradition for millennia. As an experienced falconer, Freeman was able to put the skills he?d honed on Buxton Moor in England to use in India ? his talents met appreciation, and he received birds as gifts.
