Book Description
Excerpt from The Langshan Fowl: Its History and Characteristics With Some Comments on Its Early Opponents In the history of Domestic Poultry, there never has been anything approaching to the fierceness and vindictiveness of the controversy which for years raged concerning the Langshan fowl. About the great culinary merits, high average of egg production, and hardihood of these fowls, all parties were agreed, but as the popular breeds of poultry at that time (1872) - the various Cochins - were lacking in those characteristics which made the Langshan so valuable, all the forces of the "Fancy" were arrayed against the new comers; whose formidable rivalry threatened vested interests. The poultry journalists to a man, ranged themselves at the head of the opposition, and Mr. Lewis Wright, the Cochin champion of that time, threw away the scabbard and went for the Langshans and their importers with a vindictiveness and persistency which never slumbered. Happily his efforts did nothing more than "skid the wheel" of success, and the Langshans rapidly rose in public favour wherever they went, and have long since attained a foremost place, and have been universally admitted to be the finest breed of fowls ever imported into this country. But Mr. Lewis Wright, the Sir Oracle of the poultry world, has never forgiven nor forgotten his defeat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
