Summary: Introduction to the breed with general dog care advice
Review: For the price, this book covers enough of the basics of the breed to give you an idea if the dog is worth a more-detailed research. The 'care guide' section (which takes up about 1/3 of the book) is very general, it can apply to any dog. This book alone is not enough for any serious research. If you're seriously considering the Great Pyrenees as a pet you will need a better reference book, like The New Complete Great Pyrenees, also found via Amazon.

Summary: A Cheap Introduction?
Review: While this book is not the most expensive on the market, it appears to have been created from a 'boiler-plate' of a series of canine books. Rather too much of it is not specific to Great Pyrenees. We have owned several Great Pyrenees and, from time to time, need information from reference sources. This book does not fall in to that category. It can be classified as "Read through it once and then never refer to it again".There are several other Great Pyrenees books on the market that more adequately describe the requirements of owning one of these large dogs. Andrew Jonson's attempt to address all matters relating to Great Pyrenees falls well short of the mark. This is not a book to recommend to potential or existing owners. Probably okay for children
