4.0 out of 5 stars Good information on the Mastiff, but with Bull-Mastiff bias, March 5, 1998
By 
weeksx2@ozemail.com.au (Alice Springs, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastiff and Bullmastiff Handbook (Hardcover)
As a breeder of both Mastiffs & Bullmastiffs, I believe the author has a good knowledge of the breeds, but has different opinions on some issues that show his bias toward the Bullmastiff.
A good book with alot of good information and well worth reading.

3.0 out of 5 stars Detailed history of mastiffs & bullmastiffs- great pictures, September 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Mastiff and Bullmastiff Handbook (Hardcover)
This book was well-written and quite intriguing with a great deal of history of the breed(s). I found the pictures interesting, yet would have preferred to see more pictures of mastiffs & bullmastiffs from the United States. The AKC breed standard in the U.S. is slightly different from the International Standard, so when showing a dog in the U.S., it would be more helpful to see champions from this country. The author went to a great deal of trouble in ascertaining these breed's histories, and sometimes the reader gets lost in "who is who" because the author throws in so many different names of breeders and kennels. However, the author's candor in giving his opinion about certain things is refreshing and entertaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book!, May 28, 2010
This review is from: Mastiff and Bullmastiff Handbook (Hardcover)
This is a great book with lots of wonderful pictures and research writing detailing so much about the Mastiff and Bullmastiff breeds. It is very helpful to see some of the ways the breeds have evolved over the years. An ideal resource if you are interested in studying the breeds and the lines that have been instrumental in making them what they are today.
