Originally published in 1924 and regularly revised since then, this
book is an exhaustive study of the craft of pig-keeping. Full of
detailed instructions from a more natural era of farming, this book
tels all that you need to now to successfully rear pigs, and is
still of great practical use today. Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are

modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents
