Top breeds from around the world are represented—from the graceful Large Black to the aristocratic Tamworth and the much-traveled Kune-Kune—with charts containing all the essential breed information. There's also a history of pigs, plus images of the behind-the-scenes primping and preening at competitive agricultural shows.
