Publisher's Synopsis
The Superiority of Line Breeding Over Narrow Breeding is a book written by Orator Fuller Cook in 1909. The book discusses the benefits of line breeding in animal husbandry and compares it to narrow breeding. Cook argues that line breeding, which involves breeding closely related animals, is superior to narrow breeding, which involves breeding animals from a limited gene pool. He provides examples of successful line breeding in various animal species, including horses, cattle, and dogs. Cook also discusses the potential risks and drawbacks of narrow breeding, such as inbreeding depression and decreased genetic diversity. The book is a valuable resource for animal breeders and enthusiasts interested in improving the quality and health of their livestock.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
