Beef Cattle Science (7th Edition)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent - a must fo anyone who raises beef cattle,
Review: A MUST for anyone with 2 head o 50,000 head. Colorado State University textbook. Index is not the best, but it's a MUST HAVE reference bookl.

I also, have his STOCKMAN'S HANDBOOK -- a must for anyone with livestock.

Author just passed away. I was waiting for the 8th Edition.

Some of the infomation is basic, but it IS a big, heavy book.

Summary: Yes, friends, Ensminger's books are great sources of info!
Review: Friends have prompted me to review this book.

This is a highly technical gem oriented to the university student. Those of you for whom English is a second language will gain a great deal of referring to your Oxford dictionaries but it will be well worth it if you truly want to understand everything about raising beef cattle.

While your at it, order Stockman's Handbook - somewhat less academic and a bit easier to read. Both books are five star quality!

Summary: Is this the beef book for you?
Review: I first learned of this book through Amazon and read the reviews. It is a very technical book but it is very complete.
