About the Book

This touching tale tells of a calf born in a pedigree Aberdeen Angus herd, an unusual calf that although is black in colour, is the wrong kind of black. Her times of hardship and degradation evolve her into a somewhat exceptional character. Now an old lady nearing the end of her life she tells her own extraordinary and comical tale of her exciting journey towards fulfilling her destiny.

The book is littered with colourful characters .... could only have been written by someone with a good knowledge of the livestock industry.- The Scottish Farmer James Cameron - Fife, Scotland. Farmer and cattleman
A very enjoyable story for readers of all ages. Taken from the author's experience of the world of cattle and the art of showmanship, it takes the reader on a journey through the life of a young cow from humble beginnings, to the highlights of the agricultural year. A must read for any one interested in cattle and showing but also for the townie. Here's hoping there is more to come from this author Anne Taylor - France. Housewife,
I read this book and couldn't put it down. What a lovely story. It would be appreciated by young and old. Easy reading...fantastic for parents/grandparents to read to the very young, or children to read themselves. Written with the author giving a farmers slant, as well as a nice story line. Hope there will be a follow up.

Wendy Murray, Edinburgh - IT professional
A lovely story with a great central character - a cow with attitude! Would be enjoyed by children, who would empathise with the themes of growing up and leaving your family, but would equally be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in the countryside. The author also gives an insight in to the world of livestock showing - a sort of 'Crufts for Cows' with as much, if not more, competitiveness. He writes with knowledge and passion about his subject, told with great humour through the eyes of a young cow. A great read!

Kay Adam. Forfar - Farmer and mother
At last got into it this week and couldn't put it down Just loved it and so many memories of Smithfield, Bob was also following it as I kept asking him who did what and when. You did it so well and all the tails and misshaps will live on.....Am going to make my 12 year old son read it and see if he thinks any of it would ever be true !!!! Your book was brill. All the best Kay xx

Fiona Temple - Farmer and housewife
Really enjoyed this book. Actually bought it for my Mum for Christmas, and she will love it. But couldn't resist a quick peak at it one evening before wrapping it, and before I knew it the evening was gone and the book finished. Made me feel quite nostalgic!

Julie Crowe - Farmer, Caithness, Scotland
A wonderful book, written with knowledge and understanding of his subject. The story of Princess and her adventures in the show ring would appeal to all generations, farmers and town folk alike. It would make an excellent stocking filler for anyone this coming Christmas. We're already looking forward to Andy's next book.

Becky Bishop - Farmers wife & sheep breeder

Have finished The Right Colour and will try and compose a review. Really enjoyed it, couldn't put it down towards the end!!!!! lovely story and so true

Finally got chance to finish the book on a long journey. Maybe the people around me thought I was afraid of flying when the tears ran down my face! But I loved it. Well done Andy. Informative, entertaining and full of emotion. A rare combination

Jannine Anderson April 2011
I have just finished reading 'the Right Colour' and wanted to say that it is one of the best books I've read for a long time! I don't think i will be able to look at our cattle in the same way again! I'll always be wondering what's going through their minds!! Just a pity the story had to come to an end, i could easily have kept on reading!
