I really enjoyed this book. Gene is what i'd consider a wise man in many areas (athough i disagreed with something he said, but cant remember what now.) He not only uses facts but also his own experience (along with that of his father and grandfather) in this book. It is especially helpful if you live in an area similar to northern OH, which is where he lives and gets most of his experieance. This information is useful no matter what animal(s) you are grazing or how small/large your operation.
