Description
The author, a veterinary surgeon, started working with falcons at the Doha Veterinary Practice from 1981 to 2002, which was the first veterinary clinic dealing mainly with falcons in the entire Gulf region. Arabia is one of the ancestral homes of falconry, as Faris Al Tamimi reminds us so graphically in this book. The book explores the history and literature of Arab hunting of falcons, as well as the taming and training of falcons which are bred and kept in captivity including a detailed description of their main diseases.
