Zip Zap: The True Story of a Dog and a Dream


by: Mike Gaddis
I hated finishing this book. I looked forward to reading every page. I am an ol field trailer and certainly could relate, but anyone would enjoy this book because of the excellent writing style of Gaddis. The book brought home the great memories of my wonderful(now gone)hunting companions. This book touched me deeply!!

The New Complete English Setter- A Compilation of Interesting Facts, Data & Observations on Breeding, Raising, Training, Showing & Hunting English Setters


by: Davis Henry Tuck
This book was first published in 1951 and has been updated periodically since. This is the 1982, forth edition being reviewed. The photos are in black and white but quite good. The book gives a good overview of the history of this particular breed, it's care, breeding, training, grooming all all inbetween. This is one of the most complete works addressing a single breed I know of. For those who love this particular breed, this is a book you should really own. Over the past twenty years, the breed standards have changes somewhat (showing), unfortunately, but this does not distract from this work at all.
