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.
