Falconer's Lure BlurbFalconer's Lure has a background of falconry, as unusual as it is absorbing, which shows some of the knowledge and skill lying behind this old and noble sport. But the Marlows are individualists – not all of them find hawking either an interesting or an amusing occupation – and there are plenty of other activities for them, water sports, gymkhanas and exciting opportunities for budding actors. There are problems too for the older ones who realize that moving from London to the country is not just a matter of which you like best. Text copyright Pat Bland, 1999.
