This book saved the life of the first cria born on our ranch.  Dystocia or difficult while not a common occurance happens.  Without the illustrations on page 111-113, we may well have lost both the cria and the mother.  This book sold for $25.95 when we purchased it.  Prices may have increased, but the value is priceless.
