The Carrier Pigeon

The Carrier Pigeon is a very ancient breed, often referred to as the "King of Pigeons".  The gracefulness of its body and plumage, as well as the special head features make it a fascinating bird to keep and breed.

The author kept and bred the breed for many years, developing a large stud of different colours.

Coverage includes the history, different varieties, features and characteristics, accommodation and management.

The book is well illustrated in black and white and there are coloured plates of the main varieties.
