Stephen Green-Armytage's Extraordinary Chickens is back in a new chunky format. With gorgeous colour photographs and informative text, Green-Armytage surveys more than fifty breeds from around the world, capturing with his camera chickens of all sizes, shapes, and colours, plus detailed sections on chickens' curious feet and sculptural combs.
Included are breeds developed in Japan, Malaysia, Britain, France, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Australia, South America, the United States, and elsewhere. For breeders and enthusiasts, this tiny yet comprehensive volume will be a treasure; for others it will be a revelation, worth having for the sheer enjoyment of the striking photographs and the amazing animals they portray. Its compact size makes it a wonderful gift.
