This special re-print edition of W.C.L. Martin's famous book on cattle "Cattle: Their History and Various Breeds" is considered one of the most important works ever published on cattle during the 19th Century. First published in 1853, this important work on beef cattle, has not seen the light of day since its early publication. Included are age old insights into cattle management, as well as rare insights into cattle breeds that were popular over 150 years ago. Considered among a handful of truly classic works on cattle. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
