Editorial Reviews:

For 17 years readers have turned to Storey Books for advice on raising animals. Our Modern Way series of six books has sold more than 1,000,000 copies. In an effort to provide readers with the best how-to animal books on the market we are completely updating all six Modern Way titles and re-introducing them as part of our Guide to Raising series.

Written by experts, these guides give novice and experienced livestock farmers all they need to know to successfully keep and profit from animals. Each book includes information on selection, housing, space requirements, breeding and birthing techniques, feeding, behavior, and health concerns and remedies for illness. The books also address the business of raising animals - processing meat, milk, eggs, and more. The authors were chosen not only for their expertise but also for their ability to explain the ins and outs of animal husbandry in an inviting and authoritative manner. Whether readers are ready to start an entire herd or flock or are considering purchasing their first animal, Storey's Guide to Raising series offers vital information; each book is an indispensable reference.

Summary: In a state of limbo
Comment: I have no experience raising goats per se, but it seems like there must be more to it, like some things have been left out. I have read this book and feel like I need more information. I think this book is easy to read and understand, but I found some of the author's tone to be of an alarmist's nature. I was left afraid that goats are very fragile and run a good risk of getting every disease in the book. That isn't very encouraging. I cannot really apply the advice given as I do not have goats yet, I am in the research stage, so I cannot make comments about it. Overall I am happy to have the book, but it isn't the only one I will buy.

Summary: FOR THE KIDS
Comment: THIS BOOK IS VERY HELPFUL IF YOU ARE CLUELESS ABOUT GOATS LIKE WE WERE WHEN MY DAUGHTER BROUGHT ONE HOME. GREAT LAYOUT AND FULL OF GOOD INFO TO HELP LEARN WHAT TO DO WITH A GOAT AND WHAT NOT TO DO.

Summary: Lots of good information
Comment: A great book for goat beginners-- lots of good, practical information. However, it does not seem geared toward those not pursuing the natural/organic approach to farming/livestock rearing, which we are. We're glad to have this book as a reference. But we are also glad to have a great friend who has been naturally/organically raising dairy goats for three decades as a good, solid resource for our "natural" questions.
