"This book is strictly 'Utility', that is why most of the romantic falconry terms have been left out and falcons have been called hawks. Opinions have been stripped of the customary verbal wrappings that modesty demands, but for that perhaps I may be forgiven under the plea that I have tried to keep strictly to business." Ronald Stevens' wide-ranging work covering all the practical neccessities as well as that invaluable teaching which comes only from experience. Other books by Ronald Stevens, The Taming of Genghis, Laggard, and A Life with Birds, all also available from Coch-y-Bonddu Books.
