Author Description

This celebration of the pit bull explores the history of the breed and how Staffordshire bull terriers, Amstaffs, bulldogs, and American pit bull terriers have been tagged with a misleading reputation for being vicious animals owned by hooligans. Pit bull devotees are profiled, including top breeders from around the world, organizers of pit bull rescue operations, and the masterminds behind rapper DMX's pit bull clothing line Boomer 129. Interviews and the work of cutting-edge artists fill this collection designed to offer practical and personal insights into the world of pit bulls and the people they love.
