Description

The Peregrine, which won the Duff Cooper Prize in 1967, recounts a single year from the author's ten-year obsession with the peregrines that wintered near his home in eastern England. The writing is lyrically charged throughout, as the author's role of diligent observer gives way to a personal transformation, as Baker becomes, in the words of James Dickey, "a fusion of man and bird."
