Download or read book Goats written by and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, in a comprehensive, practical, and extremely readable volume, an author-artist whose many nature books are favorites with children gives an absorbing account of goats-the countries from which they came originally, the merits and characteristics of the major breeds, the reasons why they are especially valuable to us, and the methods of raising them for pets or for profit. He describes the most scientific way to house, feed, and care for either a herd of goats or for a single goat. In addition to practical information on raising goats, Mr. Bronson gives fascinating background material about them and their place in history. The reader discovers, for instance, that traces of some of the early legends and superstitions about goats are still to be found in our language today. From Pan, the half-goat god of the ancient Greeks who had the mischievous habit of startling travelers in lonely places, comes our word "panic." Then we learn that in pagan times communities would confess their sins annually to a goat, which was later allowed to escape to the wilderness, supposedly taking the sins with it; hence our word "scapegoat." In his simple, inimitable style, known to many readers through such books as "Cats," "Starlings," "Coyotes," "The Wonder World of Ants," "The Grasshopper Book," "Horns and Antlers," "The Chisel-Tooth Tribe," and "Turtles." Mr. Bronson provides a humorous and informative text, enhanced by detailed drawings on nearly every page.

Download or read book Know Your Goats written by Jack Byard and published by Fox Chapel Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goats are a diverse range of beautiful (and sometimes rare) animals. Billy or nanny goats are the source of many a children's story. Goats were taken into the human fold over 10,000 years ago. From some of these animals, we obtain the fiber to create exquisite mohair and cashmere clothing. Others provide (extremely healthy) meat and milk; the latter being frequently turned into mouth-watering cheeses. Wandering the fields, hillsides, and mountains, goats are browsers and prefer unwanted brush, briar, and weeds, their lips and tongues choosing only the tastiest plants. Extremely intelligent and curious, they are also experts at escaping from 'secure' fields. And, they can make excellent pets. Along with photographs, this book offers information on some 37 breeds of goats from all around the world, including size and weight, hair type, and history. (Series: Know Your...)
