Extracts from Press Comments. (Continued.) 



" Of its intrinsic worth to breeders, fanciers, exhibitors, and all interested in 

 dogdom, it would be impossible to speak too highly." 



American Field. 



" The most beautiful book yet published on matters pertaining exclusively to 

 the dog is ' Ashmont's ' new work entitled ' Kennel Secrets.' " 



The Sportsmen's Review. 



" To say that it is a superb work is to put it mild. The text is of inestimable value 

 to every dog man in the land. The illustrations, 170 in number, are the finest ex- 

 ecuted half-tones ever published." 



Pacific Field Sports. 



"The consensus of opinion is, that it is the best and most elaborate book of the 

 kind ever turned out by a publishing house. At $3.00, the sale of the first volume 

 should be enormous." 



Turf, Field and Farm . 



" It is truly a grand production, and by far the most valuable addition to canine 

 literature that has been made. * * * * The value of the illustrations, showing as they 

 do specimens nearest perfection, and in so many different positions, is well-nigh in- 

 calculable, for fanciers can now create near ideals of the dogs they must breed to 

 advance the work of improvement." 



New York Herald. 



" Ashmont has given to the dog fancier a most valuable little book on the diseases 

 of the dog, and few indeed are the kennels where it is not to be found, or where it 

 is not immediately consulted on the first symptoms of anything being wrong, but his 

 earlier efforts are entirely eclipsed by ' Kennel Secrets,' a work of 344 pages, devoted 

 to the care, management, and breeding of the dog. The scope of this book is great ; 

 none but an experienced ' dog man ' would have dared to have attempted it. But, 

 although Dr. Perry aimed high when he undertook ' Kennel Secrets,' no one can 

 deny that he has hit the bullseye. * * * * It has proved an enormous success, and the 

 verdict of the fancier seems to be that nothing so good has appeared since ' Stonehenge ' 

 produced his famous work on the dog." 



Boston Herald. 



" The ' secret ' is out that is, ' Kennel Secrets,' and it is worth the waiting. 

 Already we have made favorable mention of the work, judged from the advance sheets 

 and proofs of the illustrations. The complete volume more than fulfils the promise 

 of these harbingers. If the mind is educated through the eye, then the pictures in 

 this book are a whole college course in dog lore. Most of them are absolutely 

 perfect, and show only the best type of the breed illustrated. That is, the pictures 

 of the dogs, and perhaps the statement might be extended to include the gentlemen 

 here represented; for they are surely worthy types of dog lovers. The price of the 

 book is $3-00, and it contains nearly 350 pages of attractively printed wisdom on the 

 breeding, management, and exhibition of clogs. Every dog man will wish to own a 

 copy," 



Dog Fancier.
