Synopsis

This classic book comprises a detailed guide on horse-shoeing and contains a wealth of information on the principles of this practice. Although old, the information contained herein is timeless and remains of much use to anyone with an interest in the subject today. The book is split into three sections - 'Anatomy', 'Practical Work' and 'Diseased and Altered Conditions of the Foot and Limb with Pathological Shoeing'. It is extensively illustrated with useful black and white pictures and diagrams, making it a worthy addition to equestrian collections and one not to be missed by those with an interest in the subject. Many antique books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are proud to republish 'The Principles And Practice Of Horse Shoeing' here complete with a new introduction.
