A Short History of the World According to Sheep by Sally Coulthard
I'm not sure what I was really expecting of such a title but after a 'how we got to know each other' chapter of the humano-arian relationship this was less a lineal historical progression and more a thematic based approach. In fact if QI ever decided to do a book on sheep it would look not too dissimilar to this - full of 'Well fancy that!'s and 'Who'd of thought!'s. Not that I'm complaining though . . .
