Good box dog, although as you know it did quit once, not one to be bred from.

Got the first and third one here, they're making fierce money now by the looks of it. I let all my gamedog books and mags go years ago, for some reason I couldn't part with these, had them since the late 80's. 

Always found Stratton had a very rose tinted view of the gamedog game, and if the only knowledge people getting into it had came from his books, well, they'd be in for a rude awakening! That said, I like the books and he seemed a decent enough fella. He used to get on Mr cools forum years back, had a few chats with him...

First books I bought on bulldogs too, think I paid £25 for world of the pit bull terrier. Best books for me were probably wildside kennels and California jacks, all long gone. Stratton also wrote books on Oscar's (aquarium fish) had them too.

Yeah and he romanticised certain things, but if he just told it like it was, he would have been slaughtered.

Priceless to some, I couldn't ever see myself selling mine even though now most are out away in boxes. I've got the The Book of the American Pit bull Terrier, The World of the American Pit Bull Terrier & his last book, The Truth about the American Pit Bull Terrier, I've read his first book numerous times as well.
