There is so little information available on this breed in general, that this "buried treasure" is a welcome addition to any canine library. Written a century ago, the breeder/author set out to compare his own St. Bernards to their ancestral Tibetan Mastiffs. Filled with drawings, photos and historic quotes dating back to the 1700's from trekkers to the Himalayas and Tibet proper, this "Dead Sea Scrolls" discovery of a book is a recent English translation from the authors native German, unveiling some of the mysterious origins of the ancient Tibetan Mastiff. This book provides a blueprint for the breed for contemporary breeders. Too short in length, but I loved it! (Hence, four out of five stars)
