{"product_id":"2940013692275","title":"Poultry: A Practical Guide to the Choice, Breeding, Rearing, and Management of All Descriptions of Fowls, Turkeys, Guinea-Fowls, Ducks, and Geese, for Profit and Exhibition.","description":"This work is intended as a practical guide to those about to commence Poultry keeping, and to provide those who already have experience on the subject with the most trustworthy information compiled from the best authorities of all ages, and the most recent improvements in Poultry Breeding and Management. The Author believes that he has presented his readers with a greater amount of valuable information and practical directions on the various points treated than will be found in most similar works. The book is not the result of the Author’s own experience solely, and he acknowledges the assistance he has received from other authorities. Among those whom he has consulted he desires specially to acknowledge his obligations to Mr. Tegetmeier, whose “Poultry Book” (published by Messrs. Routledge \u0026amp; Sons, London) contains his especial knowledge of the Diseases of Poultry; and to Mr. L. Wright, whose excellent and practical Treatise, entitled “The Practical Poultry Keeper” (published by Messrs. Cassell, Petter \u0026amp; Galpin, London), cannot be too highly commended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONTENTS\u003cbr\u003eIllustration: White Dorking Cock. Coloured Dorkings.
