See all formats and editions
This is absolutely the best reference book on dog breeds I have ever seen. It is huge, containing over 900 pages. There is information on every dog breed. Even extinct breeds are included accompanied by drawings. There is a least one photograph of each dog breed shown in full-color on glossy stock. The more popular the breed, the more photos there are of it. Most are large and several are in full-page format. Information on each breed includes country of origin, registry, group, colors, height/weight, other names & coat description. A detailed history & their personality traits are also included. This is the book to get if you want a great way to learn about rare & seldom seen breeds. The unusual appearance of some the dogs is fascinating.

This book is huge and from what I understand the most comprehensive dog book out there. The binding is weak so you have to handle it carefully because it is so heavy.

More comprehensive than I imagined possible. I don't know how easy these are to come by. My musty copy lived in a library in the Deep South in its previous life. Well worth the search!

So I had this book many years ago the original edition, destroyed in a fire I have been eagerly looking for it in good condition. The seller states good condition but when I received it the bind was coming apart. A bit disappointing. Other than that the book pages are fine but the bind which is critical in holding the book together is falling apart. So I am worried about the life span of the book.
