Winston: The Life of a Gun Dog

Rate this book

Ben O. Williams is a legendary figure in the world of bird dogs.

He has bred and trained dogs for over 40 years and, in all that time, one particular dog stole his heart more than any other-Winston, a spirited, hugely talented, but inscrutably aloof Brittany spaniel.

Williams chronicles their time and travels together while thoughtfully examining the profound relationship that can develop between dog and hunter.

I have a Brittany very much like Winston, so this book was like reading about my own dog. A Britt is unlike any other dog I have known, and Ben Williams has described those breed eccentricities with color and accuracy. Great dogs and a great book.

Interesting read. If you hunt birds over dogs you'll enjoy the heck out of it.
