One wild species is responsible for nearly all the breeds of domestic duck: the Mallard. Over centuries it has been developed into egg-laying strains, table birds, and pets.

Contents include breeds, their origins, and characteristics; classic ducks from all over the world; "Designer" ducks of the 20th century; management of adult stock; breeding and rearing ducklings; and common problems and ailments.
