Commande : auprès de l'auteur : alixanian@orange.fr
L'événement est suffisamment rare dans le monde cynophile pour être souligné : nous saluons l'arrivée d'un nouveau livre en français sur l'Irish Wolfhound. L'auteur a voulu donner une synthèse des conseils prodigués par de grands éleveurs de renom, pour la plupart anglo-saxons, en y apportant sa propre expérience de la race et de son élevage.
Le style est vivant et très agréable à lire, loin des collections "multi races" un peu rébarbatives, rédigées par des journalistes ne connaissant qu'approximativement la race dont ils parlent.
La présentation est également originale et rend l'ensemble très plaisant, même si vous avez l'impression de déjà tout connaître sur le Lévrier Irlandais.
Ce livre sera, à n'en pas douter, très utile aux futurs ou récents propriétaires, soucieux d'élever au mieux leur chiot mais également aux habitués qui désirent approfondir leur connaissance ou se lancer dans l'élevage.

Thanks to the collaboration of twenty Irish Wolfhound kennels and the breed-clubs from Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, England, Ireland, Italy, Canada, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Russia and the USA, we have been able to create an international publication that presents the Irish Wolfhound in unprecedented fashion.
From early records and depictions about the history and revival of the breed, passing by the standard and its interpretation from the breeders' point of view, a photo gallery of hounds from around 1900 who had an essential impact on the breed, to the individual presentation (with characterization and pedigree) of successful Irish Wolfhounds of today, a work of "scientific standard" has emerged. Contributors from all over the world reveal their expert knowledge of the "gentle giants". Illustrated with fascinating stories about the IWH, its owners, and with portraits of prestigious kennels, this book will make the heart of each Irish Wolfhound lover leap.
Fully coloured with 364 pictures, bilingual in German and English, printed on high-gloss art print paper, thread stitching, linen cloth binding, with head band and gold imprinting, this book will be the centre of your "Irish Wolfhound collection" experience the breed from its beginnings until today in appropriate style and fashion!

English version
Irish Whispers - 34,90 Eur (shipping fee included).
Gwen is far from suspecting, when purchasing a faded engraving in the lair of a bric-a-brac trader, that this is the first decisive step which will lead her to discover herself an all-consuming passion and involve her on a strange and disorderly quest across Ireland.
An Ireland of invasions, wars, Gaels, Kings, traditions, struggles, Cromwell, Gentlemen Farmers and a lifestyle unique in the world.
A haunting Ireland, an island swept by winds and passions from which you never return unscathed, and which, since the dawn of time, has borne one of its proudest symbols: the Irish Wolfhound.
