Colophon
Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feed-
back from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive
approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry
subjects.
The animal on the cover of
LPI Linux Certification in a Nutshell
is a Texas long-
horn cow. Christopher Columbus originally brought cattle to the New World from
Spain. Descendants of these animals mated with English cows, and the offspring
gradually evolved into the breed we know today.
Unfortunately, this animal was once on the verge of extinction. In the 180’s and
the early 1900s, tallow was a valued resource, as it is a key ingredient in candles
and soaps. Animal fat is a major component of tallow, and the naturally lean long
horn didn’t have enough of it to be considered useful in making a fat-based
concoction. As a result, the longhorn was cross-bred with cattle who had more fat,
so cattle ranchers would be assured of a larger financial profit in the tallow
industry. Purebred Texas longhorns were being phased out. However, in 1927, the
U.S. Congress decided to step in, and formed a government herd of this breed, to
save them from disappearing altogether. Very few purebred Texas longhorns were
found, but Congress did manage to round up 27 animals, which were placed in a
reserve area in Oklahoma. Today, the Texas longhorn is enjoying a rebirth of
sorts, with numbers in the U.S. of up to 100,000.
