Review:
Cows on the cat(tle) walk - whatever next? Daily Express Images of rare bovine breeds can be just as delectable as rare fillet steak. Time Out Bewitching bovines for fancier and philistine alike. Field Cattle do nicely... Bournemouth Echo Full of exactly what they promise - stunning photographs of champion cows with descriptions of each breed. These are modern versions of those oil paintings of prize cattle you occasionally see in stately homes, and a total delight. Independent on Sunday
