From autumn to spring, across a flat wetland in eastern England, J. A. Baker chases a peregrine falcon. He was obsessed with it, following the birds obsessively, observing them - in the sky, on the ground, chasing, hunting, eating, resting... In the pursuit day after day, his consciousness as a human gradually disappeared and was inevitably replaced by the consciousness of an eagle... This is not a book about bird watching, it is a book about how to become an eagle. About a person who longs to be something other than a human being.
