5.0 out of 5 stars Wow-- the most informative book ever, August 12, 2004
This review is from: The History and Management of the Mastiff (History and Management Series) (Hardcover)
Words cannot explain how great this book is. It goes back and tells you about the great Mastiffs of the past, how they were bred, and how modern Mastiffs came to be. The photos alone are a marvel. This is a treasure that never should have been put out of print. It is the kind of book that Mastiff lovers and breeders will be reading forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable source of history & information on the Mastiff, March 5, 1998

This review is from: The History and Management of the Mastiff (History and Management Series) (Hardcover)
Another wonderful book by the foremost authority on an ancient & noble breed. Well worth reading to learn everything from the Mastiffs history to raising your own dog today.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too much history, not enough management, February 17, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The History and Management of the Mastiff (Paperback)
Very detailed history of the breed but limited information about breed management. As a new Mastiff owner, I was more interested in chacteristics of the breed (health, training, etc).
