The Authority

Getting sheep? Have sheep? This book is the end-all authority on sheep. Nicely organized, it runs through the natural cycles that your sheep will follow throughout the year. Enjoyable & easy read, too.

Best book for those contemplating raising sheep!

There are a lot of sheep books out there, but for beginner shepherds, I always recommend this clasic book. Many seasoned shepherds still refer to Ron's book for his solid information. First published in 1983, Ron Parker updated "The Sheep Book" in 2001, and it is better than ever.
