In presenting the late Mr. Bruce Lowe sbook to the public, I am much afraid that I have by no means dune him justice. The difficulty of checking an immense mass of pedigrees English, A ustralian, and American is in itself a very serious one to any but an idle man; but the further and more important trouble has been that Mr. Bruce Lowe left a very large portion of his work unrevised, and inaccuracies here and there which he no doubt would have detected, had he lived, could not be corrected without also some attempt to assume how far such correction would have altered the tenor of his argument. The most important of these inaccuracies I have thought it besi to leave standing. This occurs in the pedigree of Ormonde, for it seems better that the reader should know what was in Mr. Bruce Lowe smind when he wrote about the breeding of that horse. Taken as a whole, the book will be found full of interest, sound reasoning, and novel ideas; the Figure System in itself being a model of convenience and simplicity, sen iceable tall breeders alike, bether they agree with the authors deductions from it or not. Personally, I think his views on the Sire Families and Punning Families are sound, as also his theory of Saturation.
