Meulebeke: Jules Gallez 1989. (Hardcover) 391pp. Very good plus, no dust jacket. Photographs, illustrations, tables, table of contents. The spine is very slightly cocked and the bottom corners are lightly bumped. "Driven by an unending desire to complete the 'History of the Belgian Racing Pigeon,' or at least the better part of it, and yet lacking the energy to bring this fifth part to a good end, I finally realized that there was just too much left out of my books so I set to and completed this fifth and last of the series....In this book, that you now have before you, I went back to the turn of the century and to the first years after the 1914-18 war. The history of a few lofts is too important to be left untold" - from the Foreword. Book about Racing Pigeons. Time Period World War 1. Vol. 5 The History of the Belgian Racing Pigeons. Translated by Ralph H. Wilcox. Locale: Belgium. (Natural History, Birds, Natural History, Pigeons).
