    This book is now being offered to the fraternity. It is a hardbound, coffee table quality text that celebrates one of the truly great strains this game has ever known. There is perhaps no other breeder in the history of the game, who has had such a profound effect on the entire sport, from such a limited number of actual breedings, as Mr. E.J. Hollingsworth Jr.

    As such, this book is as much a testimony to the man and his bloodline as it is a study into how to establish a truly great line of dogs. Hollingsworth's methods may not have been magic, but his secret for breeding a great line of dogs worked like magic. This book reveals Hollingsworth's breeding secret, from start to finish, for those who recognize that secret for what it is—and at the same time it salutes some of the gamest and most beautiful bulldogs that have ever graced this earth.

    With full-color portraits that have never before been published, along with continual narrative insight, each of Hollingsworth's breedings is discussed, analyzed, and described verbally and pictorially, as is the profound effect each of his breedings had on so many different modern bloodlines.

    Only 500 copies of this book will be sold.

    Each copy will be numbered by me, and signed by me, and sent to the buyer thereafter. This book is intended to be a true collector's item and it is intended to be as rare and exclusive as were the Hollingsworth dogs themselves. After the last of the 500 books are sold, that will be the end.

    For those of you who have always wanted such a book, your window of opportunity is open now.

    Thank you for reading,

    Jack



    I know how many feel about Jack, but love him or hate him, this is an excellent book for anyone who is interested in the Hollingsworth line of dogs.

  3. Since you started it, how much is the book and how do we order?

    Like him or not, Jack is a good writer. I certainly doubt we will find Hollingsworth breeding secrets in the books. That being said, I am equally certain book will be well written and full of pictures and interesting narratives and thought provoking theories.

    Yep ...I can definitely see the price skyrocket once the 500 copies have been sold.

    The book is $90. because of the quality of the paper its printed on. It costs a lot to make. The paper is thick and glossy.
    This is the link to order.

    Why do you say that Hollingsworth's breeding secrets wont be published?

    I've paid that much in the past. But that's when I had a lot more play money. Like back when I only had 1 dog, no house payments and a regular job. LOL I'd have to justify that with today's budget, and I really couldn't.

    I'd like to send a money order but can get no response on where to send it. I can understand if m.o. are not accepted - does anyone know for sure? I imagine he's busy and maybe hasn't had time to respond.....

    The books should start going out in about a week or so. The proof copy came back and some adjustments were needed. Hopefully everything is perfect with the second proof copy and then all orders will be filled. :) Cant wait to get mine.
