Book excerpt: Excerpt from Information Concerning the Angora Goat It may not be out of place in this connection to remark that great credit is due to Dr. Davis, of South Carolina, for the enterprise he exhibited in the introduction of the goat to this country. He was at the time in the employ of the Turkish Govern ment, at a salary of engaged in experiments upon the growing of cotton in the Sultan's dominions. He went out upon the recommendation of President Polk, to whom an application was made by the Turkish Government for the services of some competent Southern gentleman familiar with cotton culture. While there he determined to procure the goat from its native wilds. The story of the journey would be too tedious for my brief letter, and I will merely add that, with an expensive outfit at Constantinople, a perilous journey of months, and the loss of many men and camels, he succeeded in capturing and carrying off eleven of the famous animals, whose eeces, in the Shape of shawls, are so highly prized and coveted by the ladies of all civilized nations and for which prices almost startling have been paid by the wealthy. Such a tale of fortitude and determination, added to the information in another paragraph in the same letter which stated that the entire yield of the particular ock about which he was then writing had been engaged in the city of New York at per pound, from which point it was to be shipped to Paisley, Scotland, for manufacture into the shawls mentioned above, no doubt assisted in the sale of goats at each. In 1863, Hon. George A. Porter, of Baltimore, himself a breeder of Angoras, wrote to Mr. Diehl that, while occupying the post of United States consul at Constantinople, he procured and shipped for Dr. Davis the first of these goats that were ever brought to this coun try. Just how much Mr. Porter was acting upon the courtesy of the Sultan it is difficult to ascertain. Of the nine Angoras imported by Dr. Davis, seven were does and two were bucks. Besides these, according to Colonel Peters, there came in the same lot one purebred Tibet doe, several head of crosses between the Angora and Tibet goats, and quite a number of grade does bred from the common short-haired ewes of the country and his Angora buc (s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beautiful, silky mohair of angora goats makes them a rare and expensive breed. The Ankara region of Turkey, where these goats were originally from, has a rich history that is closely related to the textile industry and human culture. Where Do Things Come From? It seems that Angora goats were domesticated about 10,000 years ago, at the same time as sheep were. Many centuries have passed in the lives of these creatures. However, the selective breeding that led to the distinctive Angora breed that exists today most likely began in the Ankara region of Turkey. These goats' shiny, silky coats were prized for their spinning abilities, as mohair is a luxurious fabric known for its thermal properties, brightness, and smoothness. Mohair: A Fabric Befitting Royalty At some moments in history, only the most privileged individuals could purchase mohair due to its extreme rarity and high value. It was illegal to export these goats from Turkey for a long time, and the production procedure was well guarded secret, so the company could keep a monopoly on the better fiber. Despite these limits, mohair became more and more popular across Europe, especially among the nobility of France, who valued the fabric's shine and smoothness. Worldwide Growth The first successful exports of Angora goats were produced in the early 19th century, marking the start of their globe adventure. Notably, a small flock was gifted to Charles XII of Sweden in the early 1700s, but major numbers did not begin to settle outside of Turkey until the 1800s. Twelve goats were given to the colony by the Sultan of Turkey in 1838, marking a turning moment in the history of the breed in South Africa. Because of the environment that these goats flourished in, South Africa is today one of the world's top producers of mohair.
