Description

<p>James Rebanks's family has raised sheep in the same small English village for at least four centuries. There are records of people with his same last name going back a few hundred more. Even his sheep are rooted in place: their DNA is from Viking times. It's enough to make anyone feel insignificant--and according to Rebanks, that's a wonderful thing. Listen as the author of <i>The Shepherd's Life</i> speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about the deep pleasures and humbling privilege of being a sheep farmer.</p>
