The Express 'The whole book is peppered with some of the best contemporary illustrations of popular breeds that we've ever seen...but this certainly isn't just a picture book...There's plenty of useful text included too, covering breed introductions, buying advice, housing. common ailments, feeding etc.' Practical Poultry (June 2010) 'This beautifully illustrated book is a great starting point for learning more about hens.' Garden Answers (July 2010) '...a beautiful new book.' Country Smallholding (August 2010) 'The Illustrated Guide to Chickens is an attractive book which (the pun cannot be resisted) to crow about. It is more suitable for reference collections than many other recent poultry books.' Science and Technology Journal (2010)
