From Downland to Longwool, from Dartmoor to Swaledale, the diverse breeds of sheep in Britain reflect local characteristics and geography.
This new edition of the bestselling title from the ‘Know Your’ series presents the 41 breeds of sheep you are most likely to encounter on farms, each with a full-page photo and a description of their appearance, history and uses.
Its handy format means you can slip it into rucksack or pocket and makes it ideal for the interested rambler who is keen to discover more about the flock fleeing from him at the time!
Clear colour photographs taken of sheep 'straight from the field' illustrate the immense diversity within this species.
