This book looks at life on a Western sheep ranch. Topics include herding, breeding, and sheep shearing. Urbigkit uses a series of vivid photographs, which add interest and clarity to the text, to follow the movement of the animals from their winter range in the low desert to high mountain summer pastures (a process called transhumance). An author's note provides additional information.
