About this title

Synopsis

This early work is a fascinating read for pigeon fanciers and historians of the breed, but contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Illustrated with 7 full page plates and 15 text drawings. Contents Include: Foreword; Acknowledgments; Preface; List of Illustrations; Racing; The Breathing System; The Loft; The Feeding Problem; The Digestive Organs; The Bird's Eye; The Homing Faculty; Bird Flight; Marey's Experiments; Genetics; Breeding; Apropos Origins; Pure Strains; and Your Questions Answered. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
