Reviews for Peregrine Spring

Peregrine Spring is a wonderful and often poignant account of Nancy Cowan’s relationship with a host of raptors; their lives, personalities, and species-related abilities. This book is for those interested in human-animal relationships and future falconers alike.
Ben Kilham, author of Out on a Limb: What Black Bears Have Taught Me About Intelligence and Intuition


Not only does Nancy share the technical aspects of training and hunting a raptor, she brings to life the critical bond between falconer and falcon. A great read for anyone who wants to get a close look at what lies behind the curtain of falconry.
New Hampshire Audubon


Her poignant descriptions of hours in the field will fascinate falconers but also strike a chord with those who want a greater understanding of birds of prey in our environment.
