ABC of Poultry Raising by J.H. Florea (Agriculture, Animal Husbandry, Hobbies, 1977, poultry raising, raising chickens, homesteading, vintage guide, J.H. Florea)
This is the Second Revised Edition of "ABC of Poultry Raising" by J.H. Florea. It is described as "a complete guide for the beginner or expert," covering all aspects of raising chickens and other poultry.
Review:
A classic and comprehensive guide for the poultry keeper. Florea's book was a foundational text for generations of small-flock owners, covering all the essentials in a clear, straightforward manner. A true homesteading staple.
Author summary:
J.H. Florea was an editor for "Poultry Tribune" magazine and a respected authority on poultry husbandry in the mid-20th century. He wrote several practical, accessible books that helped popularize small-scale poultry keeping.
The collectible value is low to moderate. While a practical guide, early editions of foundational homesteading books like this have strong nostalgic and historical appeal. It is not especially rare, but older editions in good condition are desirable to collectors of agricultural history.
