Aerial Bond Between a Falcon and a Person

Outstanding story about a man who bonds with a beautiful falcon-gentle. The natural beauty and grace of this strong, independent bird is described well as is the challenges of migratory life. A very moving story about the wings of love.

The Peregrine Falcon by Robert Murphy

Excellent story that describes the power, grace, independence and beauty of this awesome bird and simultaneously shows the perils all migratory birds face in this harsh world.

Beautifully Written Story about the Life of a Falcon

I read this novel when I was twelve and recall being swept away by the story and its fine prose style. This book made a real impression on me then, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to young adults, and to adults who love animal fiction of the kind written by Ernest Thompson Seton or Daniel Pratt Mannix. One of these days I will get the book from the public library and re-read it.
