About this ebook
This vintage book contains a detailed guide to sheep and shepherding in Britain in the nineteenth century. It includes extensive information relating to selection, different breeds, history, notable figures, etc., and it is not to be missed by those with an interest in shepherding and its history in Britain. Contents include: “Indigenous Breeds”, “The Influence of the Breed-Maker”, “Breeds and Their Modifications”, “Sheep Census”, “Down and Horn Breeds”, “Southdown”, “Shropshire”, “The Hampshire Down”, “Standard of Excellence”, “Objections”, “The Dorset Down”, “The Oxford Down”, “The Suffolk”, “Scale of Points”, “The Dorset Horn”, “General Characteristics”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on sheep farming.
