Red Tina (A Fighting Dog) by Fredric Maffei, Published in 1985, Signed by Author

Description: For sale is an original paperback copy of the book Red Tina (A Fighting Dog) by Fredric Maffei. Published in 1985 by Apollo Books, this copy is signed by the author. This is a story about an American Pit Bull Terrier - Red Tina - as told from her point of view. It's a risky business, putting words into a dog's mouth. With just a few notable exceptions, such books always end up being so cutesy, sentimental, and blatantly untrue to the real spirit of dogdom as to make the genuine dog lover (a rare breed himself) turn away in embarrassment. Not so with Red Tina. Cutesy is not Tina's forte fighting is! By the centuries of game pit dogs that went before her, by the proven fire and courage of her sire and dam, by the very blood that courses through her, Tina loves above all things a good fight. There's the fact - verifiable, irrefutable - and Tina makes no bones about it. Which makes hers the most widely misunderstood breed on the face of the earth. About the author: Fredric Maffei established himself along with Richard F. Stratton as the two top emanate game dog authors of the 1970s and 1980s. Fredric has written multiple books on the subject, as well as articles written for the ADBA Gazette and Pit Bull Quarterly. Paperback, 197 pages.
