    Bloodsport to Utility Dog: American Bull Terrier Anthology
    4 November ·
    UPDATE: I finally have some news. Providing I can get all the typing and creating done before Thanksgiving (and I’m 99% sure I will) I will have the books in hand and ready to be shipped before Christmas.
    Bloodsport to Utility Dog: American Bull Terrier Anthology, includes lots of data from my 3 out-of-print dog books, plus peds, and pictures—both old and new collector b&w pics taken of old-school and newer legends, as well as a bunch of new material of Super Dogs engaged in legal activities.

    It is 240 pages. Trim size is 8 1/2” x 11”...portrait. The soft cover has color photos on its front and back. Spine is printed.
    The cost is 60 bucks, that includes a padded shipping bag and expedited postage anywhere in America. Mexico and Canada please add an extra $15 for postage. Everywhere else, please add an extra $25 (for a total of $85 US) for each book.

    For those having two books shipped overseas at the same time, and in the same padded bag, total cost is $ 170...but that price includes shipping anywhere in the world, except for China.

    As before, with my other three dog books, this one will also be run as a limited number. So as before, if this future collector’s item is kept in good condition, it will increase in value (as the other three have), rather than lose value.

    Even the still yet un-transcribed portions have already been written and designed in layout. Counting the time devoted to writing my six books (including this newest one), and learning more each day about our breed, over the course of nearly a half-century of hands-on experience, spanning 4 continents and 8 countries, knowing and watching some of the all-time legendary bulldogs and great dog-men, culminates with this go-to reference manual

    This coffee table book, which will be released in December of 2019, comprises a work of historical fictionalization to be used for education plus for entertainment purposes, hopefully to still be regarded one day as one of the more important books ever written on the breed, long after my ashes are sprinkled across my bulldog yard.

    Thank you not only for your interest and patience regarding my latest project, but also for your faith and continued support concerning our amazing breed of choice.

    Scammers and thrives beware:
    Any unauthorized copying and printing/publishing/replicating of any type: online, or of printed matter, or voice, etc., of any of my copyrighted material contained in the new book, or any other published work, will be met with quick and harsh litigation by my silent partner, a very good attorney.

    Friends, ABT enthusiasts, customers, and anyone else interested in sharing this Facebook post about my latest book may do so. Thank you.

    Please no personal checks. Send a money order, or cash, or PayPal, along with a legible return address. I have been accepting orders since yesterday. And since the post on my book page, I’ve had a truckload of requests for one of the first 300–signed, dated, and numbered.

    Happy Reading,
