1.0 out of 5 stars Not what it claims to be!, 31 Mar 2004
By A.K.Farrar "AKF" (Timisoara, Romania) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: A Field Guide to Pigs (Paperback)
I don't usually give the thumbs down to a book but I do think people should be warned about what they are buying here.

There are a few tidbits of interesting information in this publication but not many. It really gives little to either inform or help anyone serious about finding information on pigs.
It attempts to be amusing - and possibly is to a certain type of adolescent - not rude, just unfunny.
The only colour is on the cover. Most of the illustrations are drawings - not particulary informative either.
The majority of information is aimed at the American market and the editor hasn't done a very good job - there are some outragous proof reading errors!
The printing and the paper are rough.

4.0 out of 5 stars Unique Collection of Interesting general background Pig Info, 15 Feb 2005
A cute collection of all kinds of interesting titbits of information about pigs.

There is a good guide to the zoological and historical background of the porcine species. Fascinating titbits about pigs taken from literature.

A review of common breeds and their identification features and geographical distribution plus general information about the behaviour, needs and lifestyle of pigs.

It is a useful book for people who are new to the world of the pig and pig farming. Industry people looking for specialist husbandry info will be disappointed.

Especially useful for smallholders and hobby or pet pigkeepers. A list of contents is available online at: www.pighealth.com/offers/pig.htm
