The Homing or Carrier Pigeon - Its History, General Management, and Method of Training

This vintage book contains a detailed guide to homing pigeons, with information on their history, general management, and training. A comprehensive treatment of the subject, "The Homing Or Carrier Pigeon" is highly recommended for existing or prospective fanciers, and would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "History of the Homing Pigeon", "Breeds Employed as Homing Pigeons", "Management of Homing Pigeons", "Training the Homing Pigeon", "The Homing Pigeon--Instincts or Intelligence", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on pigeons.
