Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. 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. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332221967_0
