Sheep Book Update

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

Glad to hear that: it's advertised in the current GLP catalogue!

Looks good I'll have to hint to the OH to buy it me for Christmas.

Is it the kind of thing Aber uni library (on the agri side) would be interested in? Since your both ex-students, and if its going to be a flagship book they might be interested.

Looks like one for us. Our neighbour is trying to persuade us to have a few sheep ...

I like the way Tim writes, so this should be rather good.

I hope so

Such a huge amount of hard work that has gone in to it from all of us (kids too) that it will be a relief to get it finally finished. Final proofinf being done now.

The publishers have been excellent too and they are really excited about it. They want us to start on the next one but a year off sound appealing right now!

That doesn't bode well. Wink

Best of luck with the launch and for many future editions.
