Good all around introduction and reference book!

This is a good all around book for the new goat owner to read before getting goats and to refer back to again and again after getting goats. It covers all sorts of things from trimming hooves to feeding to disease to containment. I would highly recommend Storey's Guides. It's not a "read from cover to cover" type book - more a "what's the problem or need", find it in the index and go to that chapter type book. Undoubtedly I will wear this book out learning to care for the herd!
