DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis special re-print edition of the 1852 Edition of Richard F. Burton's book "Falconry in the Valley of the Indus" has not been available to fans of falconry since it first appeared on the scene in the 19th Century. The demand for this rare book has brought forth the much needed reprint of this famous classic falconry work. Falconry in the Valley of the Indus will shed considerable light on the history of the management of hawks and falcons for the sport of falconry, including age old techniques as they were practiced in early 19th Century India and Pakistan. Chapters include The Untimely End of Khairu The Hobby, The Hawks Used in Scinde, A Day With the Shikrah, Reclaiming and Manning The Hawk in Scinde, A Day With The Basah, Training The Hawk in Scinde, A Day With The Shahbaz and more. This hard to find to find text offers a fascinating look into the practice of Falconry in Colonial India and Pakistan.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the lesser known works about India by the eminent Victorian explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton, Falconry in the Valley of Indus is not just a book on the once-popular sport of falconry, it is a significant recording of the culture of Sindh. In this lively narrative first published in 1852, Burton reveals the mores and manners of the landed gentry in Sindh while providing the gory details of a sport they practiced with passion.
