This early work on Pigeon Keeping is an engrossing read for any
pigeon enthusiast of historian of the hobby, but also contains much
information that is still pertinent and practical today.
Extensively illustrated with explanatory diagrams and text
photographs, forming a complete how-to guide. Contents Include: The
Loft and Aviary, Management-Breeding, Rearing, Feeding,
Selection-Crossing versus In-Breeding, The Moult, Judging, Showing,
Preparation, The English Carrier, The Dragoon, Barb, and Antwerp,
The Pouter, The Norwich Cropper, And The Pigmy Pouter, The Frill
Family, Show Homer, Exhibition Homer and Genuine Flying Homer, The

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.
