Beef cattle book,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Beef Cattle, 8th Edition (Paperback)
My son wanted this and several other books about beef cattle. It is used but in very good condition at about half the price of a new one. It is like a textbook....he was pleased with it...and I always look for Amazon books first. If seller offers a book in very good condition....it usually is as stated.
