Review:
This reprint of the 1979 book is very good value for money, and Is a good all round book for the novice and first time exhibitor. Contents cover a general discussion of the breeds; the duck run and pond, accommodation and breeding. Ten chapters on some of the breeds available and one on ducklings for the table. There are times when the description of a breed is a little terse, as in the case of the Call Duck which only merits two pages of text although it is such a very popular breed in the UK at present with a great variety of different colours to be seen at shows..
