Lots of Good Info for the Beginner
By K. McGee
We recently bought a new house that sits on about 2.5 acres and almost every year, we buy a beef cow from someone else, have it packaged and share it with family. It's a huge money saver.
Now that I have the room, I'm very interested in raising a cow of my own but wasn't sure how hard it would be or time consuming and was having a lot of doubts so I was very happy to see this book on offer.
I found lots of good information regarding what to feed them and how to take care of them. I think having one or two cows is very viable for me. The book made it seem like it wouldn't be hugely time consuming to do. Now rather than paying someone else to raise it, I'm pretty sure I could do it on my own and I know NOTHING about animals that aren't pets. I found the book to be concise and in language I could understand. I'm sure raising a herd is harder than just one but there was information within the book that you could use regardless of how many you are wanting to raise.
I also found the section on breeds of cattle to be very informative. This book goes into pretty much everything from feeding, behavior, how to prepare a pasture, etc. I was ready to call my local vet if I had any questions but after reading, found that everything I was concerned about was covered within the book, especially making sure your cow stays healthy because since they can't talk and aren't the brightest animals, how would you tell when they need something before whatever that is gets really bad and they require a vet? The book details what to watch for. I'm feeling pretty comfortable about getting my own animal after reading.
I think this book will be a very good reference after I get the animal as well. My only concern is that I will end up getting too attached because I'll be raising just one or two rather than a herd. I think it would be easier to keep an emotional distance when dealing with lots of them rather than just one but hopefully, it won't be too hard.
I'm definitely going to be keeping this for reference and would recommend to anyone who is interested in raising cattle.

Great Coverage with Helpful Tips
By J. Sullivan
This book is a great resource for not only the student of agriculture, but also the curious. The requirements, benefits and responsibilities of cattle ownership get coverage in significant detail considering the size of the text. I find the overview of the process quite interesting.
The opening chapter explores the path to a life in cattle breeding, while the remaining chapters encompass what to do once there. This thorough text includes insider tips, which make the subject even more approachable.
One would certainly require formal instruction to pursue a career in cattle breeding, but "Raising Beef Cattle for Dummies" provides such deep insight into the subject that I consider it an excellent place to start.

Good for True Beginner
By Bonnie
A good book for the very very new beginner to raising cattle. Maybe for a 4-H person just getting into it. I am the wife of a rancher and thought it would be good to know more myself. Not much new here for me.
