Kniha by neměla chybět v knihovnách chovatelů pointerů, lovců i milovníků psů všech plemen vyšlechtěných k lovu. Z anglického originálu vydaného v roce 1902 do francouzštiny přeložil roce 1906 BARON JAUBERT, do češtiny z francouzského překladu v roce 2017 přeložila Hana Dvořáková. V úvodu knihy kynolog, iniciátor a mecenáš tohoto vydání MUDr. Vlastimil Novotný uvádí: Tato kniha jistě není určena široké veřejnosti, ale možná osloví opravdové chovatele a vyvolá u nich zamyšlení nad podstatou chovu stavěcích psů a loveckých psů vůbec.
