Publisher's Synopsis
This special re-print edition of Edward Brown's's book "The Poultry Industry in Belgium" contains a treasure trove of information on poultry raising in Belgium before the period of World War One. Written in 1910, this classic text on Poultry was originally published in England. The rarity of original copies has brought forth the demand for this much needed reprint of this important historic work on poultry raising in Belgium. Chapters include Poultry Breeding in Belgium, Housing and General Management of Poultry, Egg Production in Belgium, Market Poultry, The Belgian Duck Industry, Geese and Turkeys, Belgian Races of Poultry, Instruction in Poultry Keeping and more. Of particular interest are the insights of rare and famous Belgian poultry breeds such as the Brakel and Campine Fowl, the Malines Fowl, the Brabanter, Ardenne Fowl, Herve Fowl and the Ronqueires Turkey. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
