DILEMMA How did we get in this mess? 60 years ago we went from bulls to AI. Then ET took our best better faster. Tech gave us precision rations, better cow comfort and breeding results, then on to sexed semen. We know how to make LOADS of MILK. But we’ve given little thought to MARKETING our product!!

This is an autobiography, the story of the author’s boyhood and adolescence on an Ontario dairy farm. It contains mature themes including scenes of violence and sexual activity. Some readers may be offended.

“The story of a successful businessman and retired lawyer who early demonstrated an ability to turn nickels into dimes. Some of the anecdotes are humorous, others are poignant, particularly those which describe his early romantic attachments. A portrait of a shy young man who exploited his knowledge of Holstein cattle for his own satisfaction and personal financial gain.” Anthony Powell, B.A. LL.B. Attorney at Law “I grew up on a Glanworth, Ontario farm. The book reminded me of my own boyhood. The book is hilarious in parts, soberly reflective in others. A one-of-a-kind book and a must-read.” Dr. Gordon C. Shore, Ph.D. Professor of Bioscience, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec “No doubt you will be sued for some of the things you said. But facts are facts.” Dr. Paul Henry, M.D. Victoria, BC
