Book excerpt: A Keen Eye is a carefully researched and documented book on the facts and folklore of one of the oldest and most famous breeds of cattle in the world, the Scottish Highland. Originally compiled by Una Flora Cochrane, a genuine enthusiast of the Highland breed, in 1996, the limited production run and unfortunate closing of Busdubh Publishing of Edinburgh, the book was very difficult to find and treasured by the fortunate few who owned a copy. This revised edition features the original publication, photos and graphics, with some corrections and updates from the original author. The book is a truly unique publication thoughtfully arranged to interest all levels of readers. From the casual reader with an interest in knowing more about the "Wee Beastie Heilan Coos", to the cattle breeder who will find her insights on stockman-ship, breed basics, breeding traits, and breed history, this book delivers an accurate representation of "The Grande Olde Breed". As a bonus, the book provides a highly informative and superbly illustrated glance into Scotland's agricultural past. "Suil a ghleidheas sealbh" A Keen Eye Keeps the Cattle.
