A Shepherd's Watch - Through the seasons with one man and his dogs |
To be a sheep farmer in North Devon might be a precarious existence at the best of times and not an immediately obvious subject for a book. However this simply told, honest account of one year of such a life draws you in so that you share the pleasures, the frustrations and the concerns. The author's decision to enter sheepdog trials may provide him with momentary relaxation but are just as fascinating for the outsider. (Clive Yelf - bwl 48 November 2008) |
