    The Sheep and Its Skin: A Text-Book of the History, Breeds, Feeding, Diseases, and Afflictions of the Sheep; and of the Pelt and Wool Conservation, Fellmongering ... of the Pelt Prior to Tanning [ 1913 ]

    A short history of wool and its manufacture (mainly in England)

    An Illustrated World History of The Sheep and Wool Industry (Hardcover)

    The Patagonia tights came yesterday. I wish I could've bought 2 pair. They're wonderful and will be perfect for under wind pants.
