Given his 40 years of experience as a gamekeeper in Scotland, John Cowan is ideally placed to provide an informative account of the strengths and weaknesses of the different breeds of working dogs.
He systematically describes their respective traits and passes on his extensive knowledge on how to train dogs for their working life on a sporting estate.
Cowan’s entertaining personal anecdotes make this much more than a manual.
The Gamekeeper’s Dog, by John Cowan, published by Merlin Unwin Books, £20.
