Review: book - very good value for money
Review: Essential for all those interested in cattle. - This comprehensive guide to cattle is an essential addition to anyone with a serious interest in cattle, whether or not they intend to keep any. The information on each breed is well researched and reliable and the paintings are of near photographic accuracy. My only critisms are that in the section on the Welsh Black, Bolian Gwynion is referred to as the White Welsh instead of Belted Welsh which is how it is defined in Appendix IIIb. Another misprint is that some of the maps have their symbols marking the places of origin of different breeds in the wrong position, usually too far left. These nitpickings aside, I personally found this book immensely pleasing. It in detail covers the complex histories and relationships of many of today's modern breeds as well as covering the more obscure and rarer breeds that are on the brink of extinction. Also covered are many of the different variations that can make up a breed. Definitely worth five stars.

Book has a lot of information. The pictures are ok, but most are just fair. They’re not real photos of cattle.
