This is a practical manual focusing principally on the needs of sheep farmers and shepherds in the United Kingdom but covering material applicable to sheep-farming situations worldwide. It should also be invaluable to agricultural and veterinary students as well as to veterinary surgeons in general practice who treat sheep only occasionally.
