New Sheep Book - Update

Post: # 166760Post VSS »

For anyone who has been interested, Tim's forthcoming sheep book - The Sheep Book for Smallholders - is running a little late.

The publishers http://www.goodlifepress.co.uk are so pleased with it that they have decided to try to produce it in hardback with more colour as well.

This has set back the publication date a little bit so we are now looking at getting it out before Christmas. I can't be any more specific about dates than that at the moment.

It also has a new ISBN no - 9781904871644. To make enquires or to pre-book a copy, contact http://www.goodlifepress.co.uk

Book going to print in 10 days time!

Orders now being taken.

The publishers consider this to be a "flagship" publication and expect that it will become the reference classic for small and medium scale sheepkeepers. To be sure of having a copy in time for Christmas (or more importantly, by lambing time) contact the Good Life Press
