The old-time shepherd - lamb in one hand, crook in the other - is
an emblem of sturdiness, dependability and independence. He was one
of the most important men on the farm, responsible for the care and
well-being of the flock, with which he might need to spend days and
nights out in open pastures. How did he manage his charges and his
own life? What skills and equipment did he use? How did sheep
farming change in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and what
effect did those changes have on the shepherd's work? These are
some of the questions considered by this fully illustrated
exploration of shepherding life.
