  HISTORY OF THE BELGIAN STRAINS – by Jules Gallez. Mr. Gallez wrote this series of books in an effort to trace the roots of the modern Belgian racing pigeon. Totally absorbing for anyone who likes to study pedigrees and likes to research how famous strains of pigeons were formed and are continuing to be formed. Each book brings us a little closer to the present than the one before. In each case, the founding birds are covered, along with their records, pedigrees, and prominent offspring. Of great interest are the numerous cross-overs between famous strains, many of which had brothers or sisters from famous parents as the founding stock for different strains. Each book has numerous illustrations and pedigree charts. Subject to availability.

Note: Part II of this series is out of print.
