Well I didn't read it cover to cover - and I didn't have the cash to
actually buy it :-).
There was some very good stuff in there like the hybrid article - answered
all the questions I was asking only a couple of months ago - and they gave a
good write up to Hebden Blacks :-).
I remember one article made me think they were trying to fill the page -
something along the lines of preparing your bird for a show and washing it
in a sink but being careful about not putting its head under water. Seemed
to be an abundance of common sense rather than real info.
