TRAINING SPANIELS. By Joe Irving.

(1980) new 2020 reprint. 8vo (141 x 222mm). Pp176. B/w photographs, illustrations.

The author "describes in refreshingly clear style what you have to do to possess a first-class gundog". As much about training the trainer as the dog, an excellent, practical book which has gained a large following and run to many reprints in the last fifteen years. Essential reading which should find a place on any rural bookshelf.
