Beautifully packaged, elegantly written, full of stunning and often rare color and black-and-white photos, Best in Show is the first ever be-all and end-all book about dog shows. It describes how dog shows began and developed, which shows around the world are most important, who the human players are-the handlers, judges, owners, and breeders-who the canine stars are, and where this dog show phenomenon is heading. Best in Show stands as a book-publishing landmark that will last decades and is the hallmark gift for any serious dog lover.
