Book excerpt: Learning about goat birth can be hard because it happens only once a year (even if in many goats), so goat owners cannot practice their skills year-round. Goat Midwifery, a comprehensive book dedicated to care of the pregnant, laboring, and postpartum goat, will give goat owners the benefit of knowledge that, until now, could only be gleaned by sifting through information in many different books and learned from years of hands-on experience working with goats. It will provide a handy first-line resource for prevention of problems and the tools necessary for identifying and dealing with problems when they do arise. Liberally illustrated with photos and drawings, the book will take the reader from pre-breeding considerations through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. The book includes stories and case studies, as well as how-to's, tips, and tricks acquired by the author through more than 20 years' experience researching and hands-on experience raising goats.
