Synopsis:
This is a paperback reprint of the 2nd edition from Landmark. First published in 1976, this book is still the scholarly text on the transportation of animals from Wales into English towns and cities until the mid 1800s. This is not just a story about the movement of cattle. Towns grew up along the drovers' roads. The practice of buying cattle and selling them on delivery, was a safe way of moving money about. One drover set up the Black Ox Bank which Lloyds bought about 80 years ago.
