Opis

This special reprint edition of "Cock Fighting: Sport in the Olden Time" was written by Sir Walter Gibley, and was first published in 1912. The subject is as controversial today as it was in bygone days, as discussed here by Gibley. This thorough, in-depth examination of all facets of the sport is republished here without judgment. Cock Fighting has been part of the culture on several continents for hundreds of years, and although outlawed in most places, is actually protected by international law in some regions as inherent to the culture of the indigenous people. A rare text that will be a valuable addition to the libraries of all who are interested in the history of game breeds, or in poultry breeding history in general.
