Beebe and H.M Webster, privately published by Webster in Denver, Colorado, 1960, and Hawks, Falcons and Falconry, Hancock House, 1976.

Drawing on nearly fifty years' experience as one of North America's most famed falconers, field researcher and pioneer falcon breeder, Beebe presents the essential biology and field behaviour to understand the hunting hawk and how to catch them. He guides us through thefalcon and hawk training process so you can own a healthy, mutually rewarding field companion". Includes instructions and patterns for making your own falconry equipment. .

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. First Edition. This is limited edition number 232 of 2000 made. It appears to have been signed by both authors on the limitation page. While it is possible to have been printed, there is slight indentation on the verso. The dust jacket is in poor state due to most of…the spine being missing, however the front and rear covers remain whole and legible. The boards are a little rubbed and edge worn but strong and sturdy. Internally, there is a gift inscription under the front board but there are no other markings or inscriptions, and the pages within are neat, crisp and complete. Securely bound and presents handsomely in cellophane. JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. Signed.

Slight browning and use, bookseller's label to end-paper but good copy in poor dust-wrapper. The bible of North American falconry. "No library on this continent has a really comprehensive modern work on falconry. [We] eventually came to the conclusion that right here was really the great single obstacle to public and official acceptance of falconry in North America today. The obstacle was ignorance, ignorance compounded by the fact that accurate information on the subject was so utterly lacking." The authors aimed to fill this gap with a comprehensive, practical, scientifically sound work which would match the classics of the field for solidity, scope, as well as the quality and quantity of its illustrations. Beebe and Webster not only succeeded in their aim, they regularly updated, revised and expanded this book which more than anything else, has formed the foundation of North American falconry. This 1970 second printing is a facsimile of the first edition. Swift states that 1,000 copies were printed. It has become quite scarce. .
