THE BOOK OF FALCONRY OR HAWKING: A MODERN TRANSCRIPTION OF AN IMPORTANT 16TH CENTURY BOOK ON FALCONRY AND HAWKING.

Notes:
"This modern transcription of George Turbervile's Book of Falconry or Hawking makes one of Europe's most important 17th century books on falconry available to the average reader. George Turbervile [occasionally occurs as George Tuberville] compiled [this book] from his discussions and correspondence with the top falconers of his time. ...As a diplomat, Turbervile travelled extensively and never missed an opportunity to research falconry. His original book, published in the language and style of the time, is virtually incomprehensible to most modern readers, a problem this transcription is designed to address".
