Title: New Sheep Book - Update
Post by: VSS on September 03, 2009, 10:11:10 am
For anyone who has been interested, Tim's forthcoming sheep book - The Sheep Book for Smallholders - is running a little late.

The publishers 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  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
