New release from Boyds Mills Press:
“The Shepherd’s Trail”
A wagon sits in the sagebrush-covered desert, while herders on horseback move sheep to high summer range. It looks like a scene from the Old West, but it’s actually a sight you can see today. Shepherds still live in wagons, tending their flocks in Wyoming and other places in the American West just as they have done for more than a hundred years. You can still see the shepherds “trailing,” moving their flocks to the mountains in the summer and bringing them down to the desert for the winter.
From breeding season to lambing season, and shearing in between, Cat Urbigkit takes young readers on a fascinating ride along the shepherd’s trail. A lively, informative text, and stunning photographs show how sheep are raised over the course of a year and documents the shepherds’ work and their unique lifestyle.

Coming soon:
“Yellowstone Wolves: A Chronicle of the animal, the people, the politics,” is Urbigkit’s first adult volume. This book a fully footnoted history of the subject and is current under contract for publication with McDonald and Woodward Publishing, with an expected spring 2008 release.
