Heartbreaking, but realistic story of a competitive Pointer kennel.
I read this book about 10 years ago, thinking it was a child's book. I got it off a 50 cent library table. It is intelligently written, but a heartbreaking chronicle of the life of a purebred Pointer kennel, and the greatest product of that kennel. It describes pointer trials in detail, and is interesting. However, the cruel beginning and sad end make this a little too much reality for any child. This might be a good read for a hunter, but I'd never give it to a youngster.
