Newbie Pet Owners will be impressed by the information and photos, but may find about 1/2 of the book to be relatively useless for them.

However, this book should be incredibly useful to serious Berner people wanting a comprehensive study on Berners in the USA, along with top quality breeding information and study.

The sections on USA Berners, breeding and showing information is incredibly nice to have to study and as a ready reference.

This is a wonderful, lovely and very well written book that every Hardcore Berner person should have!
