from Swallow Press
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
I found this as one of the best books on this subject (grazing, non-conventional agriculture, small scale farming), that melded practical information with well-founded global concerns.

from Good Earth Publications
Price: $19.80

Customer Review:
This is a great book for commercial chicken operations. This book is not much use for the small flock owner. For small flock or backyard flock owners I recommend "The Chicken Tractor" by the same authors..
