    Great for beginners4
    This book has everything one could ask for. Breeding section, Resting Section and Molting Section. You really can just follow the recommendations and you won't go wrong.

    Good for beginners or for children3
    If you're thinking about getting pigeons, or if you have a child interested in them then this book is fine. If you want more detail on the different breeds, diseases, reproductive system/cycle, or behavior then this book isn't for you. It's not an expensive book and makes for a nice little read, but if you're hardcore pigeon folk then you'll come away from this book disappointed.

    GREAT BOOK FOR THE PERSON RAISING SHOW OR FANCY PIGEONS.5
    IT TELLS OF DIFFERANT TYPES OF PIGEONS. HOW TO HOUSE AND FEED THEM.IT TELLS OF THE DISEASES AND THEIR TREATMENT.
