A collection of true stories chronicling the joys and challenges of raising Scottish Highland cattle on a farm in the scenic, but sometimes harsh climate of northern Vermont. Some of the stories are heartwarming. Others are heart-rending. All of them will broaden the reader's understanding and appreciation of cattle and the realities of breeding, managing, and caring for them.

Authors are UVM Professor Emeritus of Animal Science James G. Welch and his daughter, Anne. This hardcover, 11" x 8.5" coffee table style book features beautiful photos of the livestock and landscape of the authors' Vermont farm.

A perfect gift for fans of James Herriot's "All Creatures Great and Small" books.  Published by Onion River Press in Burlington, VT.  Book can be viewed in person at Phoenix Books.

[Author's note:  The stories depict real-life situations involving livestock.  Some of them may not be suitable for all audiences.]
