This is Part 1 of a special two part, re-print edition of Warfield'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 1884, this important work on Short Horn cattle, has not seen the light of day since its early publication. Included in this book are the complete details on all the early importations of Short Horn cattle to the United States during the 19th century. Split into two parts due to its immense size, this is one of the best and most thorough histories on Short Horn 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.
