yipee, a book on trailing rather than tracking
By Just Me
From the back cover:
Man-trailing represents a special application of (the dog's scenting) ability, one that is employeed frequently in the United States, but which until recently was used less often in Europe....With the aid of an object that carries a missing person's smell, the man-trailing dog can identify and follow the correct trail, among all the many smells of different people and the rest of the environment. Which dogs are best qualified for man-trailing, and how to teach it to them and put it into practice, is explained in this book. In this book: What is man-trailing? Which dog is best suited? Practical equipment. How the dog is trained. What the dog's behavior tells you. Christiane Liebeck was one of the first people in Germany to train her dogs for man-trailing, and to educate interested teams in this field. She has written this book with the aid of Robin and Kevin Kocher from the United States, both experienced man-trailers.

Good Book But Not For Everyone
By E. Willmore
I was overjoyed to find this book and find it to be useful and also fill a rare and unique niche. That said, this book is definitely not for everyone. And I suspect that most people will be disappointed in this book because they expect it to be something that it isn't.
--This is not a book about Bloodhounds or training Bloodhounds despite the title. If that's what you're looking for, go elsewhere (the book "Red Dog Rising" about Ronin the legendary trailer is far more interesting and revealing about Bloodhounds as trailers and doing police work).
--This book is written by a non-native English speaker and it shows. For instance, one chapter is titled "For Whom is Man Trailing Interesting?". So the language and syntax is going to throw some people off. That said, the book is written clearly and coherently. But it will read like a conversation with a European who speaks clear and exact English but doesn't have the idioms down and sometimes phrases statements in ways that clearly scream "I"m not from the USA." So if that bugs you, you will continually be distracted by the book. And if that's not an issue for you, be assured that this is a very coherent and clear book that reads easily other than the syntax issue I pointed out.
--This is an intro book. It is not designed to provide a personal history and storyline (ala "Red Dog Rising"). It doesn't provide a wealth of practical training details and troubleshooting (like what to do if you have a high prey drive dog that gets distracted by wildlife scents, or there is nothing on "snake-proofing" your dog which is an issue for trailing in most parts of the US during warm weather months). I could go on with other examples but the point is, the book isn't intended to cover all of those details so don't expect to pick it up as a veteran trailer and see answers to that sticky issue you haven't been able to resolve with your dog.
--This is not a "I can learn to trail with just this book--don't need any training or classes or mentoring--this book alone will do" resource. This book reads like a good resource to get you started, or as a quick checklist the first time you go out trailing (b/c as obvious as it is that you should bring water, you'd be surprised how likely it is that on your first call you show up and are having to bogart water off of someone else.) Or forgetting to pack high-value treats. This is like a job aid--some of the advice is obvious but still essential and easy for people to forget b/c they don't have a routine down. Besides, anyone who is expecting one book to provide all of the answers (or even most of the answers) on trailing is naive.
--Police officers and K9 handlers who are specifically looking for a book geared to criminal justice and trailing potential suspects or victims or witnesses will be disappointed by this book b/c it's not very specific to those scenarios.
Now that I've talked about what this book isn't or who shouldn't get it, let me talk about the pros and target audience. I like that this book distinguishes between trailing and tracking. It's only recently that we've had literature that makes this critical distinction. If you don't know what that means, the quick explanation is that tracking involves a head-down, following tracks on the ground. This is traditionally how dogs were trained to find or follow targets. This approach breaks down when the tracks go to areas (like stone or cement) that don't leave tracks well and can get hosed down in a city (so the scent pool isn't on the track), or the track is old (and the scent pool is really more in the air or other objects) or if the personal/animal leaves the ground (gets in a car, is picked up by someone else, climbs a tree) or the track gets contaminated (someone begins walking on top of the same footsteps). Trailing involves following the scent of the target (and that scent may be strongest off the ground b/c of how scent pools work). It's very difficult to train a dog to track and then train them to trail well. You don't train tracking the same way you train trailing. So this distinction is a critical one and this book makes it--it is aimed at trailing.
This is a great intro book, if you're just getting started with trailing or are thinking of getting started with training. It will give you a clear understanding of what you're getting into, key concepts, how to approach it, and if you and your partner are a decent fit for trailing. This is also a great book if you're taking training on trailing or have an experienced handler you're working with b/c it will augment what you're getting in person, give you ideas of questions to ask your instructor/mentor, and also provide structure to what is sometimes a very "just follow me and do what I do and I'll occasionally give you some hints or interesting stories" approach by many canine trainers. And as I mentioned earlier, it provides a good job/set of reminders if you're a new K9 handler who hasn't done much trailing.

Man trailing how to train your bloodhound
By V Emanuele
This book was a great read I didn't put it down at all, and it was so in depth and easy to understand for a beginner. I think a must for any scent hound owner for an understanding of their pets abilities and nature.
