It's a reference book, but also a manual for hands-on sheep breeders. Based around an historical narrative of the industry since its inception.

Murray Elliott is one of the few people engaged in hands-on sheep breeding who have the required scientific background and practical expertise to show real results in the sheep breeding industry.

This book blends the science and practical aspects of sheep breeding along with interesting anecdotes of incidents involving the breeder and their sheep. A lifetime of endeavour to achieve the best outcomes in sheep and wool production is recorded here in the many chapters that explore all facets of breeding sheep in an easy to read fashion. No doubt this thorough and comprehensive treatise of sheep and wool production will be a valuable reference for present and future sheep producers.
