Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This special re-print edition of Hugh Smith's book “Japanese Goldfish, Their Varieties and their Cultivation:A Practical Guide to the Japanese Methods of Goldfish Culture” is a complete guide to raising and breeding Japanese Goldfish. Written in 1908, included are details on all the Japanese Goldfish varieties that were bred in Imperial Japan at the turn of the century, including the Wakin, Ranchu (Maruko), Ryukin, Oranda shishigashira (Lion Head), Demekin (Bubble Eyed), the Deme Ranchu, Watonai, the Shukin, the Kinranshi and the Shubunkin. Included is also the complete historic Japanese system of goldfish breeding and keeping that has been practiced in the Orient for hundreds of years. Lavishly illustrated with rare vintage plates. Absolutely the only book of its kind and a must for those interested in raising Japanese Goldfish. 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.
