AlbakiReads Editorial A 1924 breed guide returned in a modern reprint
A 1924 breed guide returned in a modern reprint
First published in 1924, Colonel J. K. Millner’s breed-specific handbook places the Irish Setter’s development and origins alongside practical aspects of ownership and breeding. It addresses the breed’s defining points, character, and show standard, then turns to rearing, feeding, breeding, and general management. The book also reflects the Irish Setter’s traditional role as a wide-ranging gundog used to locate game birds in bog and field country. Restored with its original illustrations, this edition preserves an early twentieth-century account rather than updating its advice to contemporary canine practice.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Irish Setter owners and prospective owners
- Breeders interested in historical breed guidance
- Readers researching the history and show standard of Irish Setters
