Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Shorthorn Herds of England: 1885-6-7 The Yorkshire Herds. - Wetherby Grange and its Associations. - Moor Park. Swarcliffe. - Studley. - Carperby. Since the days when the names of the brothers Colling and Mr. Christopher Mason made Durham famous as a cattle breeding County, the honour of producing most of the celebrated shorthorns of the past half century has fallen to breeders in the County of Yorkshire, and in a work of this description it is but natural that one of those historical birthplaces of shorthorns, Warlaby or Wetherby, should be the first visited. The quiet town of Wetherby, where the "Great Yorkshire" held its meeting in ´68, was our first destination. Being the month of November, it began with the usual dull, quiet day, ending with rain: wending our way over the bridge across the River Wharfe, we arrive at Mr. Taylor´s house, and many will know that ´tis but to cross the road and we are on what may be fitly termed the "native heath" of the Duchesses, so far as the present generation of shorthorn breeders are concerned.
