BOOK REVIEW
IF THERE is any sport more exhilarating than falconry, it is perhaps paragliding, and I left it too late in life to try the latter. But I began my falconry life at the age of 10, when those involved were either landed gentry or their servants. Opening your hand and releasing a falcon, which thenhas no equal in my experience. details that compulsive excitement, and also gives an insight into the lives of those men.
