A bonus episode this week, with two giants in the US livestock industry, John Dawes and Dr Jim Gibb.
John Dawes a contemporary and colleague of Herman Purdy who collaborated on an earlier successful volume called Breeds of Cattle gives an overview of his position in the US cattle world. This is followed by Dr Jim Gibb, a world leading expert in cattle genomics in USA who gives a brief history of how genomics were developed into what we have today. Both having reviewed our book, The History of Aberdeen-Angus cattle in US, UK and Around the World, they give us their honest opinion of what the book means in a modern society.
They also discuss our new book, The History of Aberdeen Angus in US, UK and Worldwide, as both have been early reviewers of it.

Hi Andy, just found toplines and tales from hearing you on cammy’s podcast. Love it. Also hearing of your career as an agricultural archivist thought you might be able to shed some light for me. Following the passing of Oliver Walston I was wanting to get a copy of each of his books Walston’s world and outbursts. Have looked in all of the obvious online places but have had little success. Have you any idea where I might find one or both of them.
