Donald, C. H. - The Raptores of the Punjab. [AND] Falconry - The Catching of Hawks and Falcons. Being a Supplement to "The Birds of Prey of the Punjab".

Bombay [Mumbai], The Bombay Society of Natural History, 1917-1921. In two parts. 8vo (22.7 x 15.9 cm). 24 [18, 6] pp.; four plates. Disbound. = Part of a rarely seen work, published under three different titles, all written by the British-Indian ornithologist and falconer Charles Hilliard Donald (1873-1960), who became a honorary member of the Bombay Society of Natural History. This is one of only a few works dealing with raptors and falconry in India, which is peculiar, given the long tradition of the pastime. All parts were published in the Society's Journal, and have never been published in book form. Size indicated is of the most trimmed part, which, however, still has ample margins. A very good, unmarked set. Neither in Schwerdt, nor in any major ornithological bibliography.
