Doing a bit of research. Read this book and found that I actually knew a lot of the information in it! I'd written about most of these things for my day job. So, obviously, this book is pretty basic. I've learned a shocking amount of things in five years. How weird! Doing a bit of research. Read this book and found that I actually knew a lot of the information in it!

This is a great resource for anyone wanting to raise cattle. My kids and I read this book together as we raise cattle and we could associate some things that are in the book to what we do with our cattle.

This was such an amazing book! I hated to see it end. It gave me a better idea of all that is involved in starting and successfully running a cattle program; I really appreciated getting solid advice from someone who has navigated the cattle business.
