5.0 out of 5 stars A very detailed book and a good read ...
Ms. Atter has compiled a lot of breed information and I found the book entertaining and informative. I have bred, shown and handled many breeds and decided several years ago that I wanted good, smart small working dogs with attitude. JRT's were my pick, but it was only a couple of years ago I started with them. I has compiled quite a lot of books by then. Most general...

3.0 out of 5 stars Good history of the breed--lots of nice photos
The first part of the book gives a very detailed and entertaining history of the Jack Russell Terrier. The development of the breed around the world is then covered and gives the reader an appreciation of how the breed got to its current state.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very detailed book and a good read ..., May 11, 1998
This review is from: Jack Russell Terriers Today (Hardcover)
Ms. Atter has compiled a lot of breed information and I found the book entertaining and informative. I have bred, shown and handled many breeds and decided several years ago that I wanted good, smart small working dogs with attitude. JRT's were my pick, but it was only a couple of years ago I started with them. I has compiled quite a lot of books by then. Most general care,beginner and "pet" books. This was my first I classified as a "reference" and while it lacks in a few areas, it shows a great insight into a wonderful breed. Well worth the time, read and money!

The book doesn't cover working the dog. It is very confomation and kennel club oriented.

5.0 out of 5 stars Working Terriers - the book has a whole chapter on working!, September 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Jack Russell Terriers Today (Hardcover)
The previous reviewer obviously hasn't read the book properly - there is a whole chapter devoted to working Jack Russells - contributed by working terrier men!

Of course, I'm biased - I'm married to the Author!
