VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have republished the 1925 book, using the original text and vintage photographs, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The book consists of one hundred and sixty eight pages containing eight Detailed chapters, and is well illustrated with vintage black and white photographs and pedigree charts: "Diehard" and "Daredevil". The Scottish Terrier. History and Origins. The Irish Terrier. History and Origins. The Useful Terrier. Terriers in Health. Terriers When Sick. The Principles of Dog Breeding. Dog Shows and Their Rules. This is a fascinating read for any enthusiast or historian of these two popular breeds and contains much information that is still useful and practical today. "All dogs are good any terrier is better." Many of the earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
