"H is for Hawk"


Another work of non-fiction that I found fascinating. It's about a woman who deals with her father's recent passing by training a young goshawk. She describes in great detail the interesting world of falconry--both her dealings with her goshawk and the history of falconry. She also tells the story of T.H. White who, along with writing "The Once and Future King" also wrote "The Goshawk". It's a look into the private life of a troubled man.
