Synopsis "The New Zealand Romney Marsh Sheep Flock Book: Volume 3"
This special re-print edition of the New Zealand Romney Marsh Sheep Breeders Association's book "The New Zealand Romney Marsh Sheep Flock Book, Volume 3" contains contains historical information on Romney Marsh Sheep. The Romney, formerly called the Romney Marsh sheep but generally referred to by the local farmers as the Kent, is a breed of sheep originating in England. The Romney is a "long-wool" breed recognized in England by 1800. Exported to other continents, the Romney is an economically important sheep breed, especially to the sheep-meat and wool export trades of New Zealand. The breed evolved from medieval longwool types of which the Romney and Leicester breeds are early examples. The sheep recognized by 1800 as "Romney Marsh" or "Kent" were improved in body type and fleece quality through crossings with Bakewell's English Leicester. Written in 1907, included are registration details of Romney Marsh Sheep flocks at the turn of the century, leading rams and ewes, prizewinners of the day, breeder association activities and practical information on Romney Marsh Sheep. A treasure house of information for those interested in the history of the Romney Marsh Sheep. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface.
