GRIT & STEEL

For more than a century, Grit & Steel chronicled the people, bloodlines, traditions, and stories that

shaped the history of American gamefowl. From 1899 through 2009, these publications became

an invaluable record of a unique heritage that might otherwise have been lost.

Today, DeCamp Publishing is preserving that legacy by carefully digitizing and organizing one of the most extensive

collections of historic gamefowl magazines ever assembled. Our mission is to protect these rare publications, make

them accessible to researchers and enthusiasts, and ensure that future generations can continue to learn from the past.

This archive is more than a collection of magazines. It is a living record of the people, knowledge,

and traditions that helped shape a community over more than one hundred years.
