many B&W photos which is a bit disapointing as there are many famous beardies
shown - particularly from Crufts. Even the section on coat color is in B&W.
the book does examine the Bearded Collie in America, Europe and Australia and
shows many champions. Also there are many graphics showing points of conformation
to the standard as well as details like teeth.

Most likely a description for general use.
THE BEARDED COLLIE, by
G.O. Willison, a Foyles Handbook London: W & g Foyle
Last published 1971 66 pages
A small book - but collectable.(arn't they all?) This book spends a great deal
of time on the "revival of the Bearded Collie." Which makes it of
interest as Ms Willison was the first person chosen to judge for the Bearded
Collie Club (UK) and previously credited with the revivl of the breed beginning
in 1944. She tells the remarkable story of searching and breeding probably the
first Beardie to appear at the presitgious Crufts dog show in 1950 as Bothkenner
Kennels began to devlop. The book goes on to describe grooming and preparation
for shows. Again very interesting as some of the old methods seem to have been
lost and may in fact be helpful today for those showing Beardies.
