The FFA textbooks and guides have always been high quality and sensibly written in my opinion. Between them and the Storey's publications, folks wanting to increase their food security and independence have a rich selection of good guidance at their fingertips.
This book on chickens covers literally everything I could think of to ask. We've had a home flock for years and even looking through my garden journals and notes, I couldn't find any problems we've encountered which weren't discussed in this guide.
There's a lot of information here. Happily, it's very logically divided and there's a complete cross-referenced index. There's also a resource list (slanted toward North America) with some online resources.
Well written, no-nonsense, scientifically accurate, and complete, this is a really solid resource for both beginner and experienced keepers.
Five stars.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
