Seems to be quite informative.

[Anna Glezina · Rating 4 out of 5]

Many helpful info but overall author doesn't keep the bird's best interest in mind.

[Deanna Necula · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think this a wonderfully written and descriptive book that is fool-proof for even beginners. Nothing is overlooked!

This book was very helpful. I got it at the library, after I got pigeons, and learned much from it. The pictures of the many breeds are fascinating as well.
