Amazing book
19 Feb 2004
Format:Paperback
If you've read all the other books on how to raise cattle and still have a million questions, reading this book will answer them! I'm so overloaded with information I can't think of any more questions to ask. This book will take weeks of rereading to get half the information to sink in. Very impressive work.
Incredible illustrations and photographs. If you've ever wondered exactly where your hand should be to check a cow's uterus for conception, you'll know after examining the illustrations. If you want to know every detail for visually evaluating a bull for fertility, it's in there. Want to know how to reinforce a fence corner? It's in there. Want to see an excellent corral design? It's in there.
Great book to own, not borrow, because you will be referring to it for years to come.

This is an excellent book for anyone who is even considering raising cattle. I learned things I never imagined. If you are thinking about buying cattle, buy this book first!

Excellent for the "non-cow" reader
25 April 2005
Format:Paperback
I'm not a farmer or rancher, but in my job I'm required to have a working knowledge of the small scale cattle operation. Ms Thomas does not assume that the reader has any certain level of ag knowledge, but she is not condescending either. The reader easily grasps the concepts and lingo, to the point that if you don't already have some cattle, you will soon want some. That's the level of caring and excitement Ms. Thomas brings to the subject. This book now stays on my desk as my primary "real world" cattle research book.
