Book description
'In the case of the novice, the help and guidance gained from his
fellow breeders who are familiar with the tours of the Roller will
profitably be supplemented by what he finds here, and if, in the light
of the explanations and definitions given him in this work, he studies
his own birds at home and those of others he may meet, it will be a
lasting source of pleasure to him.' Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are
republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern
editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents Include: History

Roller Dietary The Breeding Season Song Inheritance The Schoolmaster or
Tutor Preparations for Training Time Training for Competitions The
