I have fond memories of this book from my childhood. I mentioned in last month's discussion thread that I had recently reread
The Once and Future King earlier this year. From an adult perspective I was fascinated by the hawking discussions and that TH White had written a book about training a goshawk. That's what led me to Helen Macdonald's book and why I nominated
H is for Hawk.
