A propos de cet article

Publication: London, Vinton & Company, Ltd., 1910. Formatting: 8vo, pp. [various], 306. Condition Report: Very Good. The original green publisher's cloth is clean and largely free of rubbing or fading. The binding remains completely tight and square. There is faint softening to the spine ends and light bumping to the corners, though the gilt lettering on the spine and upper board remains sharp and unoxidised. Internally, the pages are clean, showing typical uniform age-toning to the text block edges. A newspaper clipping affixed to the preliminary leaves has caused minor localised offsetting, but the contents are otherwise well-preserved. ÂCatalogue Note: This is the Fifth Edition of the third volume in the 'Live Stock Handbooks' series, edited by James Sinclair. It is illustrated with thirty-one black-and-white photographic plates and a large folding pedigree chart. An early newspaper clipping titled âThe Coming of the Coachesâ has been affixed to the preliminary leaves by a previous owner, offering contemporary context on equestrian transport history. While modern print-on-demand reprints are heavily circulated, earlier cloth-bound printings such as this 1910 edition in strong original condition have become uncommon on the open market. An authoritative guide from the turn of the twentieth century, Heavy Horses provides a detailed examination of the principal heavy draught breeds of Britain. Featuring chapters on the Shire, the Suffolk, and the Clydesdale written by leading veterinary and agricultural experts, the manual covers breeding, conformation, and daily management. It serves as a thorough reference for equestrian historians and heavy horse enthusiasts.…
