106 pages. When the General Purpose Committee of the Irish Kennel Club, decided to publi sh a book on Irish Breeds, the task of researching and compiling the material fo r same was entrusted to Mr. Tom Creamer.The dedication and devotion with whi ch he and his many helpers approached this task, is reflected in the finished bo ok.Incorporating as it does the official Breeds Standards of the Irish Kenne l Club for all Native Breeds, it is an essential for breed enthusiasts, while an yone with an interest in Ireland and the Irish will enjoy making the acquaintanc e of the Native Dogs of Ireland.The original water colours by Wendy Walsh, d epicting each breed against an authentic Irish background are masterpieces of de tail.I consider it to be a book of great quality and will, I am sure, be rec eived throughout the Canine World for what it is, a classic of Canine Literature .
