Editorial Reviews

"Through the years, Storey's Guide to Raising Sheep has been our 'bible' at Wing A Prayer Farm. We've kept it on hand -- dog-eared, margin-noted pages and all -- in the barn, in the house, and on our list of recommended reading for beginner shepherds. We encourage sheep raisers, from first-time hobby farmers to seasoned, wizened flock-keepers, to keep their own copy for reference on their tending journey." -- Tamara White, Wing A Prayer Farm
