Although canary breeding and showing is a pursuit of long-standing, no previous attempt has been made to bring together all the Canary Standards in one volume. This has now been done with G.T. Dodwell writing the text and being responsible for technical accuracy and John W. Hills painting the 32 coloured plates which depict modem canaries. The reader is now able to see the Standard laid down by the appropriate specialist society and is also given guidance on the important aspects of showing and judging. This is an indispensible work for all who keep and show one or more of the beautiful breeds and varieties of canaries. .
