Carl Semencic's classic book about these unique dog breeds is finally back in print, with a new preface by the author. Whether you look upon dogfighting as a sport or as an exercise in pure barbarity, this book offers a wealth of valuable information. It covers the history of dogfighting in general and also provides in-depth studies of the individual fighting breeds. Fascinating and factual, it's also loaded with good photos, and it includes photos of some of the rarest dog breeds in the world. Individual breeds are covered thoroughly, with attention to their history and, where applicable, their standards of appearance and behavior. And although there is no attempt made to rank the various breeds according to their fighting abilities, interesting comparisons and contrasts of style are presented.

The purpose of this book is to introduce the reader to the world of fighting dogs. So that the intention of this introduction will not be misunderstood, I would like to state very firmly at the onset that this book has not been written as a guide for those involved in the illegal and inhumane activity of pitting innocent animals against each other. On the contrary, this book has been written to introduce the unquestionably humane average dog enthusiast to an entire category of purebred dogs that offer a great deal to those in search of wonderful companions and home guardians.
