Furtman Michael
Wild Goose Country
Toronto Canada: Stoddart Publishing Co. Limited 1992. Fine condition in a Fine Dust Jacket. NOT price clipped $39.95. NO chips. NO tears. NO creases. Oversize hardcover. 8.75" wide by 11.25" tall. A bright clean square tight copy. Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. Tiny remainder dot on one edge. Otherwise all pages are fresh crisp and unmarked. Illustrated with over 100 beautiful color photos. From the Dust Jacket: "Virtually everyone has been enchanted by the sight and sound of a V-shaped formation of geese passing overhead the geese honking joyfully as they take to the skies for migratory flights of up to 3000 miles. How do they survive such an incredible journey Where do they spend the winters How do geese defend themselves. WILD GOOSE COUNTRY takes the reader to the marshes and uplands that are the home to our geese. It's a volume devoted exclusively to the daily lives and fascinating behaviors of these adaptable birds and it covers all North American species. Over 100 full-color photographs illustrate the wild goose saga and Michael Furtman's text is thorough up-to-date and well researched but never stuffy. As you read Furtman's dramatic firsthand descriptions and page through the splendid photographs you're likely to share the author's conclusion: 'Geese' he writes 'are magic.'" Shipping for this large book is most economical by MEDIA MAIL. Priority and International shipment are also available but ONLY by special arrangement and at significantly greater cost. Keywords: Canada. Canadian Geese. Nature. Birds. Birdwatching. Migration. First Edition. Oversize Hardcover. Fine condition/Fine dust jacket. 159pp. Stoddart Publishing Co. Limited Hardcover

Gallagher Tim
Falcon Fever A Falconer in the Twenty-first Century
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2008. First Edition. Hardcover. 9780618805754 . Ex-library book but still in very nice condition - laminated cover and usual ex-lib type of markings. Pages clean and intact light soiling to outer edge of pages. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 336 pages; A boy a medieval emperor and an obsession that wouldn't quit. What is so compelling about falconry To find an answer Tim Gallagher mines his lifelong obsession with falcons in this engaging volume interweaving memoir history and travelogue. An entire subculture exists outside the mainstream of American society consisting of obsessed individuals Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And film writer Tony Huston among them who still use the ancient training techniques and language of falconry. Gallagher finds that his personal story connects on many levels with that of Frederick II the thirteenth-century Holy Roman Emperor legendary falconer and notorious freethinker who brought the full wrath of the medieval Church down upon his dynasty. While following Frederick�s footsteps through southern Italy Gallagher ponders his personal history as well. What salve to his spirit did falconry provide when it ignited his passion at age twelve Beset by a turbulent childhood dominated by a brutal and violent father Gallagher turned to this sport for emotional release. He offers us a unique glimpse into contemporary falconry and the result is a surprisingly frank and revealing personal story. 462noto 0211 . Houghton Mifflin Harcourt hardcover
