John F Gordon is not only a great lover of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier, but a Crufts and International Judge of the breed. He writes with complete authority on his subject, giving much sound advice to those who are about to purchase a dog, and to existing owners on the welfare and maintenance of their charges. Although written primarily for the novice and pet owner, it is certain that the more experienced breeders and exhibitor will also find it of interest and benefit.
The cover photograph shows Burland Beauty and Desdemona of Hayledore, two Staffordshire Bull Terriers owned by Mr & Mrs Percy Richards.
