A comprehensive treatment of the subject, "The Homing Or Carrier Pigeon" is highly recommended for existing or prospective fanciers, and would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "History of the Homing Pigeon", "Breeds Employed as Homing Pigeons", "Management of Homing Pigeons", "Training the Homing Pigeon", "The Homing Pigeon--Instincts or Intelligence", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive.
