The Successful Female Lines in the Breeding of the Thoroughbred Horse Friedrich Becker, 1922. Boards covered with a handstitched cloth cover, primitive but well done. Title page bears the handwritten inscription 'Property of Thos. B. Cromwell, Lexington Ky.', publisher of the magazine The Blood Horse. Bump front top of spine, pages age toned. Good copy obviously oft-consulted by previous owners. 162 pgs. A compilation of maternal tap-root lines organized by Bruce Lowe families and fully indexed. Worthy contribution to the genealogical works by Goos, Frentzel, and Wackerow, and followed later by Wall, Bobinski and Shirai. Scarce.
