On the Domesticated Animals of the British Islands David Low

First published in 1845, this fascinating treatise by David Low looks at the domesticated animals of the British Isles, focusing on history, economics, selection and breeding, and the concept of "external form". Comprehensive and in-depth, this vintage book will appeal to those with an interest in the history and importance of animals in the British Isles, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of Edward Thomas.
