Trend Setters: The Making of the Modern Irish Setter

The Irish Setter has a long history as a hunting dog and its glorious appearance and outgoing personality has made it also a popular show dog and companion. This book traces the history of the Irish Setter through three great breeders, Eileen Walker, Lee Schoen and Ted Eldredge, who came together as if by destiny in the 1930s to develop a type that today influences the dogs that we see winning in the show ring.
