review 1: Decent book about raising animals in town. Gave a lot of good information about raising farm animals in the city or backyard. I think the author is wrong about their assumption that most backyard raisers won't become somewhat attacked to their animals and treat them as pets. Some of the suggestions might put off this type of "farmer." Regardless, a lot of good information about breeds and basic care for the beginner.
review 2: It definitely covers old ground (the illustrations are mostly from The Backyard Homestead), but it seems to give new more in depth information as well. Like The Backyard Homestead, I wouldn't necessarily use it *instead* of a more specific/in depth book just about goats or sheep or cows or whatever, but as a good way to figure out if mor... moree information would be helpful, I think it's pretty well equipped. less
