5.0 out of 5 stars A Welcome Relief From The Usual Book Of This Type!
Wow, a scholarly book on a subject too often represented in a rather low-brow fashion. The author states his facts and opinions clearly, consistantly and for the most part fairly. (Every once in a while he gets a little defensive about the English national character, but as a German, I guess that is forgivable!) Really nice photos round this wonderful book out. Get it...

1.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the, June 8, 2007
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
Excellent book for the most uneducated people who take pleasure in animal cruelty. Maybe Amazon will start selling child porn next- that will be a good accompaniment to these types of books. I am no longer a customer of Amazon.

1.0 out of 5 stars Amazon needs to remove this book from it's inventory, January 27, 2011
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
This book is about an illegal sport that is outlawed in all 50 states in the U.S. It encourages a "sport" that causes injury and death to the animals which are fighting, but also to animals which are used as bait dogs - often small dogs which are completely defenseless - and serve only to incite a blood rage in the fighting dogs.

1.0 out of 5 stars To Laura Brown, December 20, 2010
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
I couldnt agree more. The fact that this book is even available is disgusting and speaks volumes for the kind of trash that this site sells. And guess what, they actually do allow child pornographers to sell their books. As we all learned today with the arrest of Phillip Greaves, this sight actually allowed him to sell his 'how to' guilde on child molestation, and not only allowed it, but defended it. So as long as this site allows dogfighters and pedophiles to prosper from the plying of their craft I will no longer be a client.

5.0 out of 5 stars NIce Book, December 17, 2009
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
I wand to answer to Laura Brown.How you possibly said those stupid things?? The Book for fighting dogs is the same as Child Porn?? Are sick or something? If you don't like dog fighting Learn that humans are violent by nature.Thats why we have Wars.Thats why we have UFC and MMA cage fighting which is very Brutal and millions of people like it and pay to see it. Dogs fighting in their nature to.But Child Porn is just Sick.It is not in the nature of humans.
You must know that this is not an Angels world.It is human world.If you don't like to learn what dogs are fighting breeds then don't buy the book

5.0 out of 5 stars campaign for humane slaughter not censorship, August 20, 2007
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
Since the great Diane Jessup(the furthest thing from a dogfighter) gave this five stars,I will too.

Book-banning hs been shown to an unproductive activity. Especially since in this case the book under review is not a "how-to" book, but instead a history book. If we ban all the history books on the inhumanity of war, communism, nazism, etc. and all the other horrific aspects of life we will only make ourselves more ignorant and susceptible to error than we are already.


Don't waste your time trying to ban books, do what you can to ban veal and bring about the most humane slaughter conditions possible. Work to stop the import of animal products from countries that don't kill animals in the most humane possible way. Demand transparency from the meat industry.

1.0 out of 5 stars What is wrong with you?, August 16, 2007
By 
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
This is disgusting. No one should be buying this book. Amazon should not be promoting animal fighting. I was a proud Amazon customer but I will never buy from you again until you stop selling these items.

1.0 out of 5 stars amazon promotes animal fighting, August 14, 2007
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
Dear Mr Bezos,
I am sure that you yourself do not advocate dog
fighting and animal cruelty and that you do not want that to be
the image that Amazon is known for. Sadly though you are
endorsing this actjust by selling these products that promote a
violent and debased culture.

Maybe you are not familiar with its nature and have not heard of
how they force the animals to breed with "r**e stands" and how
they abuse the animals to make them "tough fighters" then kill
them when they lose. Maybe Amazon doesnt mind these practices or
even enjoys them.

Sice I have no way of knowing I will be buying my products from
your competitors from now on until you stop selling or offering
products that are solely devoted to illegal or violent
activities.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great book for sadistic criminals, August 9, 2007
By 
Jamie (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fighting Dog Breeds (Hardcover)
If you are a lowlife with no morals or intelligence, and have nothing better to do than torture dogs, then this book is for you! And if you'd like to support a company that sells material that supports this type of gruesome activity, this book is also for you. I am no longer an Amazon customer.
