'The author, an experienced educationist, has made a detailed four-year study of every aspect of Black Eagle life, based on his own observations and wide experience gained in a lifetime's study of bird-of-prey behaviour. Many interesting discoveries are recorded. We learn of the Black Eagle's intelligence and 'awareness-wisdom' in matters of deep concern to themselves, including their relationships with men; of their educational methods and hunting techniques, their homecraft and weather-forecasting and use of a herbal remedy. We are given vivid action portraits of the Black Eagle in flight and courtship play and the intimate details of family life. We are shown the by-ways of natural history observation by a very experienced natural historian.' - editor's note
