GREAT DANES: PAST AND PRESENT BY DR MORELL MACKENZIE A VINTAGE DOG
BOOKS CLASSIC REPRINT. Originally published in 1912, this extremely
rare early work on the Great Dane is much sought after. VINTAGE DOG
BOOKS have republished it, using the original text and photographs,
as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The author was a
highly respected breeder of the day and book's 222 pages cover all
aspects of the Great Dane. It starts with the history of the breed
and moves on to discuss buying, breeding, feeding and showing
amongst many other topics. It also features over 50 photographs of
champion Great Danes of the Day. This is a fascinating read for any
great Dane afficionado or historian of the breed but also contains
much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of
the earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are reprinting these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
and artwork. CHAPTERS: I: HISTORY II: BREEDING PRINCIPLES III: THE
MAIN BREEDING POINTS IV: DESIRABLE POINTS, AND DEFECTS V: MATING,
