The Practical Shepherd (Classic Reprint): A Complete Treatise on the Breeding, Management and Diseases of Sheep - Brossura
Sinossi
This book by the author, a prominent breeder of the era, was brought to print with the purpose of educating farmers and breeders on the subject of sheep husbandry in the middle of the 19th century. The author brings to bear his personal experience in raising sheep from his youth and over 30 years of direct, hands-on management of considerable flocks of sheep. His expertise in this area positions him uniquely to author this book, and his advice and insights are still useful and relevant to contemporary sheep husbandry in the United States. The book provides minute and explicit instructions to meet the needs of both the novice and experienced shepherd. The author describes all the varieties of Merino prevalent in his day and includes descriptions of the leading families of English sheep. The author's opinions on husbandry are largely drawn from his own experience and observations, but when citing others, he includes their names and quotes their language whenever possible. The author also includes historical information on the breeds, discusses principles and practices of breeding, and covers the topics of anatomy, diseases of sheep, and appropriate remedies. The book is comprehensive and thorough, and with the inclusion of observations, opinions, and language from other prominent breeders and veterinarians of the time, creates a more complete and authoritative picture of sheep husbandry in that era.
