This special re-print edition of Allen's "American Cattle: Their History, Breeding and Management" is considered one of the most important works ever published on cattle in America. First published in 1868, this important work on cattle, has not seen the light of day since its early publication. Included are details on cattle breeds that were popular in the United States in the mid 19th Century, including the Texas Longhorn, Hereford, West Highland Cattle, Galloways, Ayrshires, Alderneys, Guernseys and Jerseys, Shorthorns, Holsteins, Spanish Cattle and others, as well as insights into breeding and raising cattle of all types. One of the best histories on cattle breeding in the United States. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
