| Publisher Description: This special re-print edition of Mrs. A.A. Berry's book "Berry's Golden Rule Poultry Farm or; Profitable Poultry" is a guide to raising poultry for pleasure and profit. Written in 1913 by one of the greatest female poultry entrepreneurs of the early 20th Century, this classic text on poultry sheds light on age old techniques of managing chickens and other poultry. Also included are insights into Mrs. Berry's famous poultry operation at Clarinda, Iowa, as well as details on the poultry breeds she raised, including Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Orpingtons, Rhode Island Reds, Brahmas, Langshans, Cochins, Leghorns, Minorcas, Houdans, Anconas, Hamburgs, Runner Ducks, Pekin Ducks and others. Lavishly illustrated with vintage period photographs, this classic text also offers a fascinating look into the mail order poultry business of a century ago. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background. |
