J Darcy New Books..

[FUJI 17,284]

Received the latest offerings regarding books through the post today by Darcy,In Pursuit of the Largest & Now That's What I Call Lurcherwork IV..I haven't read them from front to back as I've been on a 350 mile trip out with the dog today,but read a couple of chapters from each book now I'm sat down for the day & I've really enjoyed what I've read & seen so far..I'm known to take the micky out of JD but I will always be honest about things & what I will say is the books are well worth adding to your collection,for the money they are brilliant! Hope those that have them on order & or have had them delivered are happy with their purchases..fair play to JD ,he puts in the hard miles by motor & the hard yard's on foot with the dog's as many of us do..he must of stuck in at school & especially English because he sure as s##t has a great way of writing

Plenty of bad ones too trust me the old dog is fast closing in on retirement & I've decided we'll call it a day together it's been a great journey but both his & my body are as good as f###ed matey unfortunately.

By bad ones you just mean "ones with character".

I have the books ordered but they may take a day or two longer to reach Ireland. Can't wait!

Get your book/books out soon mate. The minshaw thread was epic and photos on it are gone.

Fair play bud,I have my personal favourites of JD's books & although I enjoy a read of them all the 'Of Dog's & Deer' is a totally unique & brilliant book in my opinion

There's people who slag off the lurcher book writer, but not me !

I think it's a skill, an art, and if they use a little bit of "poetic license", so what, It's not supposed to be a reference book !

Darcy's good at it, but then I'm a bit biased, a couple of my dogs got a mention in one of his books ! !

Cheers.

Decent lad who actually gets out there and works his dogs . As keen and dedicated as they come and puts in a lot of miles. I've appeared in a couple of them also

Here is a nice, lightly read book, from the same author..

It is Number 50 in the original print run.

There are some lovely looking running dogs illustrated,.. and to be truthful,.. a few are absolute corkers

I'm sure I've had that book but can't find the thing.
