Product Description
This celebration of the pit bull explores the history of the breed and how Staffordshire bull terriers, Amstaffs, bulldogs, and American pit bull terriers have been tagged with a misleading reputation for being vicious animals owned by hooligans. Pit bull devotees are profiled, including top breeders from around the world, organizers of pit bull rescue operations, and the masterminds behind rapper DMX's pit bull clothing line Boomer 129. Interviews and the work of cutting-edge artists fill this collection designed to offer practical and personal insights into the world of pit bulls and the people they love.

Best Pet Bull Book EVER!! May 28, 2008
Dog MaMa (Sacramento, CA)
I own quiet a few books about Pit Bulls, from coffee table books to hard reading and this book is by far my favorite. This book is urban, well designed, well written and truly a great representation of Pit Bulls & Pit Bull culture. This book covers all the bases -acknowledging the Pit Bull condition in 21st century North America but working to redraw the breeds bad rap all at the same time. This is a must own for ALL Pit Bull parents and admirers. I bought this book as gifts for all of my neighbors who own Pitty Bulls and they were all amazed at how cool this book is!

As the owner of 3 awesome pit bulls I was thrilled to buy a book that captures the spirit of these great dogs. The pictures are really good and really capture the dogs spirit. They interview lots of people who tell their own "bully" story. I would highly recommend this book for any bully lover, or anyone intersted in this noble breed.

This is a good book for pitbull lovers and haters. The book is really put together well, pictures and art are great. I wasn't expecting to learn much about the breed with this book, but surprisingly it does teach you a bit. But all in all this is more of a visual book. Good stuff.
Use your head, punish the deed not the breed!!

Paul 107 presents the bulldog breeds fantastically. He does so with intelligence and facts without glossing over the breeds history. There are plenty of full color photographs and illustrations to accompany the entertaining commentary. I love the "coffe table book" style of this book.....I also love that it covers ALL of the bull breeds and focuses on them as pets in RESPONSIBLE homes. Yes, some of the images are "street" with logging chains around the dog's necks, but the context of the book is such that you learn to respect this noble breed and appreciate the interviews with various bulldog people. I highly reccommend this book for the bully collector. It's not your typical "table of contents", "housebreaking", "how to train your dog" book, rather it is a compilation of many different types and styles of writing, including poems, art, interviews, etc, as well as information on where to get quality bulldog items. A great read!
