Notes:
"This little book, written from personal experience of the author, has done much to keep alive the traditions of falconry and encourage its modern revival". Harting. Bibliotheca Accipitraria. 1891. An excellent early reference for the gentleman sportsman falconer, including some "trifling anecdotes". Highly collectable and scarce in this first edition.
