This Comprehensive Owner’s Guide to the Basset Fauve de Bretagne is the only publication available dedicated to this French scenthound breed. While the breed’s popularity is currently in the shadows of two other French bassets (the Basset Hound and the PBGV), the Basset Fauve de Bretagne is full of character and determination, serving his owners well as a hunting dog and family companion. Named for his fawn-colored coat, the Basset Fauve stands high above his low-to-the-ground brethren in personality and courage. Written by the late Evan L. Roberts, the first breeder to import the Basset Fauve into England, this volume traces the breed’s origins in native France, following it to the shores of England and beyond. Roberts continues with a chapters on characteristics and the breed standard encapsulating all of the virtues of this sweet-natured hound breed, offering sound advice about which owners are best suited to the breed. New owners will welcome the well-prepared chapter on finding a breeder and selecting a healthy, sound puppy. Chapters on puppy-proofing the home and yard, purchasing the right supplies for the puppy as well as house-training, feeding, and grooming are illustrated with handsome Malamute adults and puppies bursting with personality! In all, there are over 135 photographs in this compact, useful, and entertaining volume. The author’s advice on obedience training the at-times stubborn Basset Fauve will help readers better mold and train their dogs into good canine citizens. The extensive chapter on healthcare written by Dr. Lowell Ackerman provides up-to-date detailed information on selecting a qualified veterinarian, vaccinations, parasites, infectious diseases, and more. Chapters on the special care of senior dogs and remedies to tackle and prevent common behavior problems conclude the volume. Sidebars throughout the text offer helpful hints, covering topics as diverse as historical kennels, toxic plants, first aid, crate training, carsickness, fussy eaters, and parasite control. Fully indexed.

Developed in response to a severe void in the literature, the book addresses topics ranging from medicolegal investigation of death to death scene investigation, forensic autopsy, and artifacts of resuscitation as well as complications of medical therapy, forensic osteology, forensic odontology, forensic photography, and death certification. The book includes various types of cases, including sudden natural death, asphyxia, motor vehicle collisions, death in custody, child abuse and elder abuse, acute psychiatric and emotional deaths, and pregnancy. It contains sample descriptions of pathological lesions which serve to aid pathologists in reporting their findings to law enforcement agencies, attorneys, and others involved in investigations of sudden death. The concepts outlined in the text are beautifully illustrated by large, colorful photographs. There are also "Do and Don't" sections at the end of each chapter that provide guidance for handling the types of cases examined.

The Smells, Sounds, Tastes, and Feeling of Captivity in Civil War Prisons

By: Evan A. Kutzler

From battlefields, boxcars, and forgotten warehouses to notorious prison camps like Andersonville and Elmira, prisoners seemed to be everywhere during the American Civil War. Yet there is much we do not know about the soldiers and civilians whose very lives were in the hands of their enemies. Living by Inches is the first book to examine how imprisoned men in the Civil War perceived captivity through the basic building blocks of human experience--their five senses. From the first whiffs of a prison warehouse to the taste of cornbread and the feeling of lice, captivity assaulted prisoners' perceptions of their environments and themselves. Evan A. Kutzler demonstrates that the sensory experience of imprisonment produced an inner struggle for men who sought to preserve their bodies, their minds, and their sense of self as distinct from the fundamentally uncivilized and filthy environments surrounding them. From the mundane to the horrific, these men survived the daily experiences of captivity by adjusting to their circumstances, even if these transformations worried prisoners about what type of men they were becoming.
