A HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLIE OR SHEEPDOG IN HIS BRITISH
VARIETIES By Rawdon Lee. A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS CLASSIC REPRINT This
superb book of the Collie was first published in London 1890, and
even today remains a classic book of the breed. First editions are
very rare, expensive and much sought after. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have
now republished it using the original text and the splendid
illustrations by the famous dog artist Arthur Wardle. Rawdon Lee
was a celebrated author of several superior dog books and was
Kennel Editor of "The Field" for many years. The books one hundred
and sixty four pages contain nine detailed chapters: - Early
History. - The Collie. - Early Shows and Winners. - The
Smooth-coated Collie. - The Old English "Bob-tailed" Sheep Dog. -
Trials with Sheep. - Collie Clubs and Collie Standards. -
Management, Breeding, Showing, etc. This previously rare historical
record of the Collie will prove of much interest to all enthusiasts
and historians of the breed, and contains much information that is
still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest dog breed
books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are
now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS
are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
