From the Dust Cover:
As its subtitle explains, this stunning anthology is a
celebration of the Brittany, a dog that has won the hearts of countless
generations of bird hunters and their families. Equally at home pointing
woodcock on the soft ground of New England alder thickets and scenting chukar
partridge on the swirling winds of rocky western mountains, the Brittany is
first and foremost a gun dog. The breed's skill and, occasionally, antics afield
are wonderfully told in the twenty-six stories that comprise this tribute.
Most of the authors are legends of outdoor writing, men like
Ben 0. Williams, Charley Waterman, Michael MacIntosh, Stephen Mulak, and Bill
McClure. Anyone with more than a passing interest in the delightful Brittany
will find hours of pleasure between the covers of this book.
An accomplished trainer, breeder, and field-trialer, editor David
Webb has devoted nearly twenty years to the Brittany. This wonderful
collection features original cover art by longtime Brittany enthusiast Ross B.
Young, and never-before-published line drawings by artist Chris Smith.
