I grew up farming and ranching, surrounded by almost every form of livestock... except goats. But I was always fascinated by neighbors and friends who owned them, so thought I would give this book a listen. I am so glad that I did.

Growing up in an Amish community and embracing a lifelong farming lifestyle, author Daniel Hart has lived and breathed the art of animal husbandry for his entire life, and it shows. Not only does he know the temperament and management of goats, but also the in-depth science required to raise the best tribe possible. You will learn goat breed selection, feeding, breeding, birthing, rearing kids, bathing, hygienic care, medicating, hoof-trimming, medical examinations, fleecing, milking, marbling, butchering, cheese-making, and so much more. Goats are one of the greatest multi-purpose animals alive, providing both food and clothing.

Increasing numbers of people have decided to abandon the comforts of city-living, having seen how hard it can be to thrive and survive there in times of crisis. Even people who have always lived in rural areas are quickly realizing that their reliance on modern amenities is getting out of control, and there has never been a more important time in modern history to get back to a self-sufficient lifestyle. And having your own goats, and learning to care for them, are some of the best first steps you can take.

This should be the first book you buy to learn everything you need to know to get started. An incredible trove of information, and a joy to listen to. I strongly recommend buying a physical copy in addition to this audiobook. You will wear it out reading through over and over! One of the best books I have reviewed, and a well-earned 5 stars are gladly given.

The good life starts with goats!
