New York Times Bestseller
Now in paperback, Nancy Cowan's memoir gives us a new perspective on the relationship between humans and the natural world. In spirited prose, Cowan shares her experiences running a world-famous falconry school, and the lessons she's learned from her birds. Peregrine Spring carries her readers along, so they, too, meet hawks and falcons in ways they never imagined possible.
Review Quotes: Peregrine Spring is "a roller coaster ride of experiences . . . an exquisite, moving, important and surprising book. . . . When the tempo does slow, it is a respite that gives the reader a chance to savor descriptions of incredibly beautiful birds which carry the reader along on their spectacular flights." --Sy Montgomery, author of The Good Good Pig
"Peregrine Spring must be told. It is important that this book be published. People need to read this." --Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, author of The Hidden Life of Dogs
