Pigeon Keeping

This special re-print edition of Frank M. Gilbert's book “Pigeon Keeping: Hints To Beginners” contains all the information a person needs to master the basics of breeding and raising pigeons. Written in 1891 and aimed at answering the questions of the novice pigeon keeper, well over 120 years later, Mr. Gilbert's advice still rings true for informing beginners about what they need to know about pigeons to successfully raise and breed them. Included are details on how to select the best birds for a start, how to feed and house them, as well as many old fashioned pointers that will put the beginning pigeon keeper on track to success. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
