About the author
Faris Al-Timimi, a veterinary surgeon, started working with falcons at the Doha Veterinary Practice from 1981 to 2012, which was the first veterinary clinic dealing mainly with falcons in the entire Gulf region. He also became involved in the veterinary care and management of rare African and Asian Antelopes kept in a private collection of wild animals in Al-Wabra, Qatar from 1983 to 2000. In 2002, he moved to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to set up The Eastern Region Falcon Clinic in Al-Khobar, by the invitation and sponsorship of H.R.H. Prince Turki bin Muhammad bin Fahd Al-Saud. He published his first book on falcons "Falcons and Falconry in Qatar" in 1987, and the second book, in Arabic, followed in 1992.

Book Conditions Explained
Biblio’s Book Conditions
-
As NewThe book is pristine and free of any defects, in the same condition as when it was first newly published.
-
Fine (F)A book in fine condition exhibits no flaws. A fine condition book closely approaches As New condition, but may lack the crispness of an uncirculated, unopened volume.
-
Near Fine (NrFine or NF)Almost perfect, but not quite fine. Any defect outside of shelf-wear should be noted.
-
Very Good (VG)A used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Very good items should not have writing or highlighting.
-
Good (G or Gd.)The average used and worn book that has all pages or leaves present. ‘Good’ items often include writing and highlighting and may be ex-library. Any defects should be noted. The oft-repeated aphorism in the book collecting world is “good isn’t very good.”
-
FairIt is best to assume that a “fair” book is in rough shape but still readable.
-
Poor (P)A book with significant wear and faults. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. Any missing pages must be specifically noted.
