Beginners' Circle: A Collection of American Falconry magazine articles from 1996 to 2003

by William C. Oakes

In 1993, I wrote the book The Falconer's Apprentice. It helped many apprentices to learn more quickly how to handle, care for, train, and hunt with their first hawk. More importantly, it presented the ethical philosophy adhered to by many falconers and falconry organizations.
When American Falconry magazine came along, I suggested to the editors that I write a column for the apprentice falconer. I submitted a few articles to show them that there was still more to say about apprentices, Red-tailed hawks, and falconry ethics. They agreed to let me write the Beginners' Circle.

Good book

Good book for someone in the fence to become a falconer. The author has great respect for his birds! I feel this book might scare potential falconer's away from the lifestyle
