5 out of 5 stars A Must Have For Wheaten Terrier Fanciers.......2007-01-06

This is the one book that anyone interested in Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers must have. It is accurate, informative, delightful to read and a beautiful book to own.

4 out of 5 stars Thorough History.......2005-10-29

This is a good book to read if you want to know more about how the Wheaten came to be, tracing its history and breeding from Ireland to the US. It also offers some great information on grooming and showing the breed. It's a lovely book which includes some very nice color photographs, written by a woman who definitely knows what she's talking about!

2 out of 5 stars The Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier .......2005-08-03

It's very nice & informative BUT most of the pictures are Black & White...All Colored pictures would've been Better! Out of the 177 pages it had Only 8 (in the middle) were colored.

5 out of 5 stars !great buy!.......2004-02-13

even there's no color...
a complete book from choosing a breeder to taking care of a 10 years old dog!

4 out of 5 stars Book of Gold.......1999-12-28

I do not yet own a soft coated wheaten terrier, but I found this book incredibly helpful. It backed up most of the information I had already learned about wheatens. There were a few questionable comments (diet, grooming) but the book was well-written, and easy to understand.

5 out of 5 stars Everything we needed to know.......2007-07-04

This book was exactly what I expected. It was well written, giving you everything you need to know about the breed (as a pet). We are in the process of adopting a SCWT, and we were very glad to have the extra info. It's also good to keep as a guide for later. Although informative, if you are thinking of a show dog, this is probably not the book for you.

3 out of 5 stars Good Wheaten Basics.......2007-05-13

This is a good basic book about wheaten terriers. Gives you all the general feeding, care and training guidelines specific to Wheatens. Easy to read and enjoyable. If you're looking for an in-depth training guide or insight into Wheatens behaviors and particular habits however, this is not the book for you. Overall, good buy.

5 out of 5 stars Owner's Manual.......2007-05-12

I really like this book for people that own Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers. The book gives alot of good sound advice and sounnd tips on handling this particular breed.

5 out of 5 stars Great book!.......2007-04-07

This book provides detailed information on everything you need to know about buying, training, and caring for a Wheaten Terrier. Great resource!

4 out of 5 stars Helpul Read for a New Owner.......2005-10-29

This book is a great place to begin if you are new to owning a Wheaten. It has a lot of helpful tips for getting you off to a good start with your new member of the family. I read it cover to cover before bringing my puppy home, and continue to use it as a handy guide as issues of training and grooming arise.

    5 out of 5 stars A very positive book about the most positive breed I know........1999-02-03

    This book is a must for Wheaten owners. I have read it over and over. It is positive - in contrast to other books describing the history of the breed. It contains very valuable information on pedigrees, and it covers all the foundation dogs of the breed. I can't wait to read the new book on Wheatens by Roberta Vesley. Hopefully, it will be available soon.

    2 out of 5 stars This is Not a book for beginning owners........1998-11-27

    I had decided that by looks alone I wanted to learn more about the adorable Wheaten and searched for the comprehensive book designed with the beginner in mind. What I found was more of a guide to the lineage and breeder ranking for world class show dogs. This was not what a first time want- to- be dog owner has in mind. The word "complete" is a misrepresentation. I would not recommend this book to a novice such as myself but rather to one who travels in the dog show and breeding circles.

    1 out of 5 stars Too much history, not enough about character of this breed.......1998-10-05

    I had hoped to find a book that would give specific insights into the personality of these wonderful dogs. Unfortunately, this book gives little more than lists of Wheaten Terriers and history, without practical applications. There aren't even any color pictures. I was very dissapointed, and continue to look for a book that will help me make the most informed decisions in living with such a lively, and affectionate puppy.

    5 out of 5 stars GOOD INFO:-).......1998-03-18

    I did a report on Wheatens and I found this book very helpful. Especially when it came to grooming. Not only did it give me info for my report but also on grooming my own Wheaten! I got an "a" on my report and I owe it mostly to this book! I think it also is a good guide for people who are interested in Wheatens. They are wonderful dogs, my mom loves them because they don't shed! They're not lke other terriers. My pup is the best ever. Wheatens rock!

              Book Description

              Chinese blue and white porcelain has made a unique contribution to the history of ceramic technology. Throughout its development from the beginning of the fourteenth century, through its technical originality and artistic brilliance, it has continued to captivate and inspire the entire world.

              This richly illustrated book traces the history and evolution of blue and white in China, first during the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368), when the Mongols ruled all of Asia, creating an environment in which blue and white could travel swiftly as far as the Mediterranean. In the fifteenth century the Chinese became enamoured of their own product, while at the same time the Ming potters were susceptible to ideas from the Islamic world and commercial and aesthetic pressures during the colonial period of European expansion. From the sixteenth century onwards, passion for collecting became a major influence on the concept of chinoiserie.

              Finally John Carswell shows how the combined efforts of scholars, collectors and archaeologists have illuminated how, why and when blue and white developed and has made such a major impact on world civilization. The stunning illustrations are from museums and private collections around the world and include some never before published.

              Important Note: The book also includes a very special unpublished material from a mysterious fourteenth century shipwreck in the Red Sea. Seen by only a handful of experts, the findings from this shipwreck are very important for art history and are published here for the first time. Full details with line drawings and complete mini-catalogue of this material are given in the book.

                  Book Description

                  This richly illustrated book offers a glimpse into the lives and creativity of African American quilters during the era of slavery. Originally published in 1989, Stitched from the Soul was the first book to examine the history of quilting in the enslaved community and to place slave-made quilts into historical and cultural context. It remains a beautiful and moving tribute to an African American tradition.

                  Undertaking a national search to locate slave-crafted textiles, Gladys-Marie Fry uncovered a treasure trove of pieces. The 123 color and black and white photographs featured here highlight many of the finest and most interesting examples of the quilts, woven coverlets, counterpanes, rag rugs, and crocheted artifacts attributed to slave women and men. In a new preface, Fry reflects on the inspiration behind her original research--the desire to learn more about her enslaved great-great-grandmother, a skilled seamstress--and on the deep and often emotional chords the book has struck among readers bonded by an interest in African American artistry.

                                I'm contemplating recovering my sofa and loveseat and checked this book out of my local library. While I was tempted to skip right ahead to the most complex project, I decided to start at the beginning with a simple pillow and follow the book through. I learned so much and the step-by-step instructions and illustrations were amazing!! This book is a keeper and I'm now going to buy one from Amazon.
