Summary: No Mad Cows here, not even slightly peeved
Comment: I have a smallish yard in a city, but if these folks can raise food on the hoof in a suburb of Los Angeles, then I certainly can too. With all the stories you read about the filth being fed to the animals we purchase in the grocery store, it's become vegetarian or raise it myself. This book gives you a good picture of what you can do and how it was for these folks. They didn't know anything to begin with either. But you can get this book the next day from Loompanics. 8003802230 or find them on the web.

Summary: A Book Everyone Should Read
Comment: Providing food for yourself was once a necessity for staying alive. Raising/butchering livestock has been part of the human condition since cilivization began. People are quickly losing the skills previously taken for granted. Can you butcher a rabbit, a hog, a sheep? Can you live with the responsibility for killing a living creature? Why not? Food does not originate in supermarkets. You should know first-hand about such things. This is reality. That's not to say you should enjoy butchering. But you should have fortitude to deal with it. Our ancestors, minus grocery stores, obviously did. Buy this book. Use this book.

Summary: A really great place to start
Comment: I REALLY enjoyed this book when i saw the title i thought it was talking about catching wild animals or pets or something... its not its main chapters are about rabbits chickens quails mini goats and pot belly pigs. It really is a fun read and a great place to get started helping you decide what animals you would like to raise (i just got rabbits). That said however before you actually buy animals i would read more than this book on whatever it is you want to raise. But, for a first book this one can't be beat
