 German Wirehaired Pointers Today (Book of the Breed) - $24.95
Welll..it's a matter of what you want.
This 154-page book is by an English show breeder and judge ,and as such the book is somewhat jolting at times, as when reference is made in the "field" section to a dog dropping to a whistle, flushing on command or information on falconry or deerhunting with your GWP. It is very show-oriented, featuring show kennels around the world, and as the book was written in 1994, somewhat dated. Note dates of the other reviews here. Interesting comments on the differences betweene the US and UK Breed Standard and good illustations of them.
Good pictures of lots of dogs, all in B/W. Terrible last chapter, and ending of book. Just stated "common ailments" (a ploy to expand the book's length) , not mentioning bloat, a genuine problem, and then ended the book with no closing summary.
Medium book for idle reading, especially for a conformation (show) person in the UK. There are better books, but it's definitely a matter of what you want. Not really worth three stars objectively, but as those who buy it have an interest (myself included),that's probably worth an extra point.
