Books on small holding

Looking for ideas for a book for someone into smallholding. Mainly vegetables, bees & chickens. But think they are looking at goats down the road

Hugh fearnley whittingstall from river cottage has a good few books out on small holding and killing and cooking animals that might suit you.
Look under river cottage in Amazon.

That or else google angle books.they are in Wales and the website comes up as cocchy bonduu or something like that but they have a very good selection of books on small holding and shooting fishing foraging etc.

John Seymour's "Complete Book of Self-Sufficiency" is the classic. There are updated editions available too.
And there's Dick Strawbridge's "Self Sufficiency for the 21st Century".
