BOOKS BY BARBARA CARPENTER
Barbara Carpenter was a sheepdog trialist who founded and ran the "Ladies Trial" every year at her farm, Pasters Hill House, in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, England, where she lived into her nineties, and sadly died in 2013. She was the breeder of Brocken Robbie, a very important sire in the Border Collie pedigree. Her books, The Blue Riband of the Heather (which invokes the ribbon won by the International Sheep Dog Champion each year) and the National Sheepdog Champions, are pivotal works for those interested in the history of the breed.

JAMES HOGG, THE ETTRICK SHEPHERD
Because of his involvement with the shepherd's dog in his work as a shepherd, and his devotion to his working collies, Hector and Sirrah, both of whom he wrote about extensively, describing their personalities and working style in great detail, James Hogg is an icon in the history of the Border Collie. Although his works are much reprinted, these particular books are the genuine articles, the antique, out-of-print, and rare volumes of his work. We hope to find more of these books in the future.

BLACK BOB, THE DANDY WONDER DOG
These books, the Black Bob Annuals, are all antique, out-of-print, rare, and quite sought after. We are pleased to be able to offer them to you at a very good price, and will be looking to increase our inventory of them in the future. Some of them, unfortunately, come through with their covers and/or binding in very poor condition. Despite that, the pages are all in good to excellent condition except for some yellowing.
