The golden eagle has frequently been disregarded as a falconry bird. However, if trained and flown correctly these eagles can be very effective, providing the contemporary falconer with a unique hawking experience. As folden eagles are raptors for the experienced, this book has been written with the practicing falconer in mind or for those interested in history and natural history.

This is much more than a manual; it is a celebration of the exhilarating sport of hawking. Martin Hollinshead brings his wealth of experience and expertise to the topic of hunting mammalian quarry with Goshawks, Buteos and Golden Eagles. The book picks up where beginner manuals leave off. It comes with stories from German forests to America.
