The Book Of The American Pit Bull Terrier (349 Pages; Hardcover)
This informative book reveals the positive realities about the Pit Bull Terrier and its usefulness in society. Pit Bulls are a controversial breed, maligned by some, but revered by many. Author Richard F. Stratton, points out the deceptiveness and wrong thinking of those who are eager to destroy the breed. Unsuitable for small children, this book is recommended reading for high school age and above.The Book of the American Pit Bull Terrier carries accounts banning dog fights; their relative ineffectiveness in the states in which they are extant, the inherent dangers of these laws to owners of pets of any breed, and how such laws can easily work against those they are designed to safeguard. Speaking first-hand from his own experience as a keeper of Pit Bulls, occasionally beleaguered by animal "lovers" whose zealousness surpasses their knowledge, the author gives sometimes surprising insights into our system of jurisprudence and how the outcome of litigation in courts of law is frequently dictated by the people who apply the law rather than by the law itself. The Pit Bull has a staunch defender in author Richard Stratton!
