Cows are one of the most common farm animals on earth, but what many people dont realise is that they are also gentle creatures with a uniquely inquisitive nature. Moo is a collection of quotes from famous cow-admirers including Charles Dickens, Mary Quant and more, paired with charming photographs that celebrate the humble cow.

Cows are my passion. What I have ever sighed for has been to retreat to a Swiss farm, and live entirely surrounded by cows – and china. – Charles Dickens

Cows are one of the most common farm animals on earth, but what many people dont realise is that they are also gentle creatures with a uniquely inquisitive nature. Newly released in paperback, Moo is a collection of quotes from the famous and not-so famous, paired with charming photographs that celebrate the humble cow.

From Thomas de Quincey to Mary Quant, cows have fascinated writers, philosophers, fashion designers, film stars and musicians for centuries. They are hugely sociable creatures, with several strange habits, such as being able to sleep while standing, and spending up to eight hours a day chewing. Moo will open your eyes to their immense variety, their joyfulness, and their surprising tenderness.

With photos of around 50 of the worlds most popular cattle breeds, this is the perfect gift for anyone from bovine experts to folks who happen to find cows cute (youll be surprised by how many famous names agree!).

Pick up Moo today and gain an endearing, amusing insight into the magic of these animals that are absolutely integral to our lives.

Angus St John Galloway has spent his life around cattle and is deeply concerned for their welfare. From having a family cow as a child he came to be aware of just how friendly and attached to humans they can be. The growing popularity of cows being in small holdings again, the vastly increasing intolerance for any maltreatment of cows, and the thousands of rescue organizations inspired him to produce this joyful pictorial celebration of the world’s billion cows.
