This in-depth, multi-authored work originally published in France
takes readers deep into traditional world of shepherds. Far from a
nostalgic glimpse into a romanticized lifestyle, this book teaches
how this sophisticated art and set of tangible skills has
application in modern, North American range/livestock management.
Through academic study and analysis and in-depth interviews with
master shepherds readers will be amazed by the deep connection
between the nutritional need for animals to feed, the powers of
observation used by the shepherds to effectively care for and
manage large herds, and how the traditional moving of the animals
is more fitting to many landscapes than even the most progressive
rotational grazing and moveable fencing systems. The compilation
carries enough weight to dazzle the most ardent student and enough
real-world know-how to equip the 21st-century herdsman with new
insights and philosophies.
