Patrick Morel is renowned worldwide as a falconer Master. He has an innate sense of hunting, is a modest expert on 'grande quete' pointing dogs (particulary English pointers) and is himself a fine shot.He is the former President of the Belgian Association of Falconry (Club Marie de Bourgogne), and was previously President of the International Association for Falconry, when he was instrumental in bringing together 60 countries which practice falconry.Patrick's idea and initiative and the teamwork of a group of equally passionate experts led to the official classification of falconry as 'intangible cultural heritage' during the General Assembly of UNESCO on 16 November 2010.The French edition of the Art of Falconry, published in 2013, has been a bestseller and recognised as the best book on hunting in French.
"I genuinely cannot recommend this book too highly to anyone who really loves falconry and shares the passion for it that so obviously shines through from the author". Bob Dalton, World of Falconry; "This magnificent book will be a 'must have' addition to many falconers bookshelves" The Austringer, Journal of The Welsh Hawking Club; "This book, written by one of Europe's preeminent falconers and a man who has dedicated his life to our "Art", is a celebration of Falconry, examining its history, culture, varieties of practice and its global diversity. This is a beautiful publication which deserves pride of place on any falconer's bookshelf." Adrian Lombard, International Association for Falconry and the Conservation of Birds of Prey.
