This book contains a classic guide to dairy farming by J. Prince-Sheldon. Dairy farming is a type of agriculture used for the long-term production of milk, which is processed (at a dairy) for the sale of a dairy product. This volume concentrated on cheese production, looking at different varieties and how they are traditionally produced. "Dairy Farming and the Traditional Methods of Cheese and Butter-Making" will appeal to anyone with an interest in cheese production and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: "Cheese-Making", "Cheddar and Cheshire Cheese". "Butter-Making", "On the Use of Ferments in the Dairy", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of cheese.
