Description

Taking Stock: A Journey Among Cows by Roger Morgan-Grenville is a thought-provoking and entertaining exploration of our relationship with cattle. Since childhood, author Roger Morgan-Grenville has been fascinated by cows, leading him to take an unconventional approach to understanding their lives.

At the age of 61, with no farming experience, Morgan-Grenville signed up as a part-time labourer on a beef cattle farm to tell the story of these often-overlooked animals. The result is a lyrical and evocative book that delves into the history, adventure, and welfare of cows.

This book invites readers to rethink their assumptions about food production and the lives of cattle. With 10,000 years of human-cow interaction, Morgan-Grenville challenges us to consider the tiny services we ask them to provide and the de-natured lives they are often led to live. a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the natural world and our place within it.
