Notions of the Heredity of the Waterslager was written by G. Lelievre in collaboration with COM International Judge, F. Vasseur. Lelievre’s fame as a waterslager expert is well established in Belgium and his books continue to be purchased and read there.

The availability of this book in English is a first. The book was translated with a view to maintaining the original wording and concepts as much as possible. The concepts of heredity shared go beyond what is found in the average canary book and deal specifically with song inheritance as well as with other issues.

Major topics in the work include:

• Preliminary Ideas of Inheritance.
• The Laws of Inheritance.
• Heredity Maladies.
• The Behavior of Predisposition in the Process of Heredity.
• The Heredity of Canary Song.
• The Influence of the Milieu.
• The Hereditary Structure of the Vocal Apparatus.
• Hereditary Predisposition for Song.
• The Diverse Directions of Song.
• Matters of Song in the Pairing and Breeding of Birds.
• Crossing to Effect a Conserving of the Same Song Quality.
• Crossing to Effect the Completing of the Repertoire of a Line by Adding a Tour from the Same or from a Different Song Direction.
• The Standard Colors of the Waterslager and the Functions of the Laws of Heredity.
