Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book from the 18th century is a fascinating look at sheep, cattle, and horse breeding in Britain. The author toured various regions, observing the different breeds and farming practices. He concluded that the best animals for breeding and fattening are those with small bones and a symmetrical form. These animals have a greater proportion of valuable meat to offal, such as hide, bones, and intestines, and they mature more quickly. The author also discusses the importance of selecting animals from good bloodlines and provides tips on feeding and management. Mixing breeds may lead to a decline in quality, which could potentially result in a breed losing its best characteristics. 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.
