The last thirty years have seen an astonishing rise in the popularity of the Golden Eagle as a hunting bird in the German-speaking countries. The interest in the Golden Eagle amongst German specialists is well established but the rise in the bird's numbers is recent. This is due to the greater, and cheaper, availability of captive bred birds, with demand being boosted by large and glamorous field meetings. In this, his latest book, Martin Hollinshead examines the rise of Golden Eagle falconry in Germany and Austria since the 1950's. This account includes much on the personalities involved, their exploits and their involvement with the establishment of today's large, well-financed, glamorous and highly organised Middle-European falconry scene. .
