Sheep have been farmed in Britain for hundreds of years and more
than thirty million sheep now inhabit these islands. The many
breeds developed over this time have been carefully matched to
their surroundings - from the hardy, seaweed-eating North Ronaldsay
to the tough hill-dwelling Swaledale and the docile Dorset Down of
the lowlands. Susannah Robin Parkin here explains the main
differences between the various breeds and the qualities of their
appearance, temperament, meat and wool, and also outlines the
history of sheep farming and the way the industry works.
Illustrated with beautiful colour photographs throughout, this is
an essential introduction and guide to the main breeds and their
classification into upland, hill and lowland varieties.
