“Goat Song is one of those rare books that capture a singular once-in-a-lifetime experience in prose that speaks the language of poetry.”

--The Woolly Times

“. . . Basquin’s masterful, compassionate remembrance of her life on her isolated Washington Island Angora goat farm in Lake Michigan, a powerful reflection of Basquin’s experiences with birth and death and everything in between—especially, discovery of self.”

“ . . . a wonderful foray into the heart of humanity’s rarely noticed, extraordinary relationship with members of the animal kingdom.”

“. . . Neither Sue Hubbell—who writes of her beekeeping in several books—nor Gretel Ehrlich, who has written about her life on a remote Montana ranch, has given us a more colorful and concise opening.”

“. . .Her story is both poignant and, in an individual sense, heroic. As each page is turned, one is eager to read more.”

“’. . .the sojourn with the goats was a magical experience that I could not have easily provided for myself . . .’ She has given us a share of that experience in Goat Song.”
