Good Breeding is the first book to celebrate the majesty of highly bred livestock-cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and pigs-and the bond be tween these magnificent animals and the humans who raise them. In these 240 full-color photographs-taken at agricultural fairs in France, England, and Argentina-the renowned photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand captures the extraordinary quality of these impressive creatures and demonstrates the intense connection between humans and animals. Useful information about livestock breeding and each of the breeds pictured makes this book a guaranteed blue-ribbon winner. 240 photographs in full color, 19 x 11" Yann Arthus-Bertrand's photographs have been featured in National Geographic, Life, Geo, and Paris Match. He lives in France. Claude Michelet is a French writer and former cattle breeder.
