On his own admission, Douglas McClary is fascinated, even to the point of obsession, by pigeons.\u00a0 Since early childhood, he has bred, flown, and shown many different breeds and now commits his thoughts to print.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this comprehensive book, he offers to share his experiences with fanciers, novices, and people considering starting this wonderful and worthwhile hobby.\u00a0 Virtually every aspect of pigeon keeping ins covered and presented in orderly, segmented chapters. As well as a colour section illustrating different breeds, there is a special feature on eye-sign.\u00a0 Probably the most extensive book on pigeons to be written in recent years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Published in 1999 in England, this is a great book for someone fairly new to our great hobby. Two hundred and eighty pages of easy-to-understand reading. Chapters include General Care, Shows, and Showing, Pigeon Racing for the Busy Man, A Pigeon Miscellany, and The Pigeon Year-A Month-by-Month Guide. Every breed has its admirers, for every derivation from the original rock pigeon carries with it a personality, character, and appeal. It was with this thought in mind that the author included as many aspects as possible in this book. B\/W photos<\/p>\n
