Description
The Old English Game Fowl: A Historical Guide to Breeding and Keeping Game Fowl Chickens Written by Herbert Atkinson in 1896, this book is a valuable resource for those interested in the breeding and keeping of Old English Game Fowl Chickens. During a time when the sport of cock fighting was still a popular underground activity, Atkinson's work provides a unique insight into the history and management of this breed. This special re-print edition is a faithful reproduction of the original 1896 edition, with its original typeface and minor imperfections. The book is part of a larger series of educational materials on the history and raising of various chicken breeds. It is intended for educational purposes only, providing a detailed guide to the sport of cock fighting and its significance in the history of the Old English Game Fowl. For those interested in the history of Game Fowl breeding and management, this book is a valuable resource. Its publication is neither an endorsement nor a criticism of the sport, but rather an attempt to provide a historical context and understanding of the breed.
