Synopsis "The Flock Book of Shropshire Sheep: Volume 1"

This special re-print edition of the Shropshire Sheep Breeders Association's book "The Flock Book of Shropshire Sheep, Volume 1" contains contains historical information on Shropshire Sheep. The Shropshire breed of domestic sheep originated from the hills of Shropshire, and North Staffordshire, England, during the 1840s. The breeders in the area used the local horned black-faced sheep and crossed them with a few breeds of white-faced sheep (Southdown, Cotswold, and Leicester). This produced a medium-sized polled (hornless) sheep that produced good wool and meat. In 1855 the first Shropshires were imported into the United States (Virginia). Written in 1883, included are registration details of British bred Shropshire Sheep flocks in the 1880's, leading rams and ewes, prizewinners of the day, breeder association activities and practical information on Southdown Sheep. A treasure house of information for those interested in the history of the Shropshire Sheep. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
