Show moreheretofore published by George Turbervile gentleman. First published in 1575 under title: The booke of faulconrie or hauking. Title with woodcut of the earl or Warwick in hawking costume-DNB; the woodcut is repeated on p. 362. STC distinguishes two "issues" of this edition: 24325, which has catchword "of" on leaf A1r (listing 5+ copies in Britain and 5+ outside Britain); and 24325.5, "anr. issue, with quires A-K reset", which has catchword "com-" on A1r (listing 4 copies total). The corresponding ESTC records are S118834 and S3107. The remaining gatherings (L-2A and the title gathering) are of the same setting in all copies; the distinction between STC 24325 and 24325.5 is properly variant states, probably resulting from enlargement of the edition in the course of printing. Collation: 4to: [par.]⁴ A-Z⁸ 2A⁴ [$4 (-[par.]4) signed]; 192 leaves, pp. [8 unnumbered] [1] 2-370 [6 unnumbered (last leaf blank)] [misprinting 11 as ̂1 ("com-" state), 198 as 168 (some copies), 265 as 205 (some copies), 302 as 392]. LC copy imperfect: last blank leaf wanting. Rare first edition of the "best known English book on hawking" (Schwerdt), replete with 42 charming woodcuts. The present work is a comprehensive guide to all aspects of falconry, promising to teach the reader "to knowe all kinds of Hawkes, and to have the cunning how to reclayme, keepe, flee, ympe, & mewe the sayd Hawkes, with sundry other like matters incident and appertayning to Falconrie". Although imported hawks were an exceptional luxury in 16th century Europe, Turberville does give significant mention to the "Barbary" and even "Tunisian" falcons, replete with illustrations. - Turberville's account is acknowledged as a valuable source of 16th century terminology and practice (cf., eg., Grassby), and figures prominently in the literary history of the sport: "Despite its medieval associations, falconry retained its high status into the sixteenth century and even received a boost from the printing press." Grassby describes the "culture of hunting" in Early Modern England as "a form of pleasure and relaxation which was thought to offer an emotional link with the natural world"; the present treatise, with its remarkably detailed and perceptive veterinary section (running to 150 pages), certainly demonstrates the high esteem which 16th century falconers held for their charges. As Turberville indeed notes, "it is very necessary and behovefull for [the reader] to have knowledge and good experience in their diseases and cures: for that they are birds subject to sundrie maladies and accidents, the cure of all which dothe rest in the careful keeper". - According to Grassby, Turberville wrote for the nobility and gentry, who were of course the primary consumers of falconry during the period; the annotations found in the margins of the present copy certainly show a easy familiarity with hawking. Hawks were bequeathed in wills, and it was a felony to steal a manned hawk. "He is no body," noted Robert Burton in his 'Anatomy of Melancholy', "that in the season hath not a Hawk on his fist". - Persistent but light staining. Occasional dog-earing, worming, minor tears and printer's faults with very minor losses of text (X5, X6, and Z4 are the worst examples). - Rare, only one complete of the present first edition in auction records of the past decades (but 17 copies of the 1611 reprint).
