Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blue Andalusian: Its Breeding, Management, and Exhibition I hardly think that any apology is necessary for the introduction of another monograph upon that handsome variety of domestic poultry the Blue Andalusian, for although the breed is now one of our old-established ones, the strict demands of the fancier upon the delicate ground colour and lacing have become so very much more pronounced in recent years, and so great an improvement is required upon what satisfied the most critical judges of even a dozen years ago, that the necessity for some work upon the subject, written up as near as may be to the requirements of the times, will, I trust, justify the publication of these pages. Being fully aware that the value of a work of this kind would be considerably enhanced as a book of reference if it contained more than the simple experience of one individual, I have been only too pleased to avail myself of the kind assistance of several of the principal breeders of the variety, and must take this opportunity of thanking them for the information that they have so ungrudgingly afforded me.

Download or read book Why Did the Chicken Cross the World written by Andrew Lawler and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veteran journalist Andrew Lawler delivers a “fascinating and delightful…globetrotting tour” (Wall Street Journal) with the animal that has been most crucial to the spread of civilization—the chicken. In a masterful combination of historical sleuthing and journalistic adventure, veteran reporter Andrew Lawler “opens a window on civilization, evolution, capitalism, and ethics” (New York) with a fascinating account of the most successful of all cross-species relationships—the partnership between human and chicken. This “splendid book full of obsessive travel and research in history” (Kirkus Reviews) explores how people through the ages embraced the chicken as a messenger of the gods, an all-purpose medicine, an emblem of resurrection, a powerful sex symbol, a gambling aid, a handy research tool, an inspiration for bravery, the epitome of evil, and, of course, the star of the world’s most famous joke. Queen Victoria was obsessed with the chicken. Socrates’s last words embraced it. Charles Darwin and Louis Pasteur used it for scientific breakthroughs. Religious leaders of all stripes have praised it. Now neuroscientists are uncovering signs of a deep intelligence that offers insights into human behavior. Trekking from the jungles of southeast Asia through the Middle East and beyond, Lawler discovers the secrets behind the fowl’s transformation from a shy, wild bird into an animal of astonishing versatility, capable of serving our species’ changing needs more than the horse, cow, or dog. The natural history of the chicken, and its role in entertainment, food history, and food politics, as well as the debate raging over animal welfare, comes to light in this “witty, conversational” (Booklist) volume.
