Falcon Fever: A Falconer in the Twenty-First Century – Tim Gallagher

I’ve always been absolutely fascinated by falconry, and this book gave me a profound new respect for it.

Part personal memoir, part travelogue, part history of the sport, part glimpse into the intriguing subculture of modern falconry. Mr. Gallagher got into falconry at the age of twelve, partially as an escape from a brutal father, but decades later he is still passionate about it.
