This book was released on 2017-01-13 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special re-print edition of the 1852 Edition of Richard F. Burton's book "Falconry in the Valley of the Indus" has not been available to fans of falconry since it first appeared on the scene in the 19th Century. The demand for this rare book has brought forth the much needed reprint of this famous classic falconry work. Falconry in the Valley of the Indus will shed considerable light on the history of the management of hawks and falcons for the sport of falconry, including age old techniques as they were practiced in early 19th Century India and Pakistan. Chapters include The Untimely End of Khairu The Hobby, The Hawks Used in Scinde, A Day With the Shikrah, Reclaiming and Manning The Hawk in Scinde, A Day With The Basah, Training The Hawk in Scinde, A Day With The Shahbaz and more. This hard to find to find text offers a fascinating look into the practice of Falconry in Colonial India and Pakistan.

After the murderous act above detailed, nothing seemed to prosper. Twice a covey of partridges rose and the Shikrah was sent in full pursuit, when a second hawk was inadvertently slipped, so that the danger of their "crabbing"* became imminent. And the quantity of cursing that accompanied these mishaps, instead of acting more Europeo as a sedative upon the cursers, exercised, as it usually does upon the Asiatic mind, all the proper functions of a stimulant. "The beasts have now brayed their full," whispered Hari Chand in my ear; "another minute and the kicking will begin. Are they not Belochies? With your Highness's permission I would remain at a certain distance, for these asses' foals never mind what they assault in their skittishness, provided that they can find some employment for their heels." Resisting my valorous Moonshee's proposal to "pad the hoof," I determined to act as a "friend of order," and, thanks to study of the native character, my benevolent efforts were crowned with success. Whilst the Ameer, too sullen to interfere, stood looking on apparently in hope of a row, I walked up, compelling Hari Chand to follow me, and, selecting the weaker party, began to "tell them of their faults" as the members of * When two hawks fight they are said to "crab." high-spirited English families love to do, that is to say, to overwhelm them with pointed and personal abuse. The tone of voice, a gruff base, like the basso cantante of an orchestra, withdrew attention from the rattling treble of the vocalization around. Mammu ceased to scream at Fauju; Mammed* forebore to reproach Ali with the sept pechts mortels, and Umar contented himself with internally yearning, instead of openly praying for, sudden death to descend upon the head of...

Book Hawking Or Faulconry  History of Falconr

Download or read book Hawking Or Faulconry History of Falconr written by Richard Blome and published by Read Country Books. This book was released on 2005-08-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hawking or Faulconry" was originally published in 1686 as part of the author's classic work - "The Gentleman's Recreation.," and is now considered an important milestone in the early history of Falconry. First editions of this work are now extremely rare and consequently expensive. We are now republishing it using the original text and engravings. One hundred and fifty five pages contain twenty five detailed chapters: - Directions for Taking Hawks. - Of the Several Sorts of Hawks. - The Gerfaulcon. - The Slight Faulcon. - The Lanner. - The Merlin. - The Hobby. - The Bawrel. - The Castrel. - The Goshawk. - The Sparrow Hawk. - Reclaiming the Haggard-Faulcon. - Enseaming a Faulcon. - Bathing a Hawk. - Making a Hawk Bold and Hardy. - Feeding. - Hern Hawking. - Brook Hawking. - Rules for the Mew. - Falconers Rules. - Falconry Terms. - Diseases and Cures. - Choice and Use of Spaniels. - Certain Terms of Art. - Hawking Statutes. Etc. Also incorporated in the contents is a thirty two page preface with notes on the history of this, and other important falconry books. This is a fascinating read for any Falconry enthusiast or historian, but also contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest sporting books, particularly those dating back to the 1800s, are now extremely scarce and very expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
