This vintage book contains a comprehensible guide to horse shoeing, focusing on shoeing race horses, polo horses, horses used for hunting, and draft animals. The timeless information in this handbook will be of considerable utility to farriers and horse owners alike, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage equestrian literature. Contents include: “Polo Horses”, “Hunters and Jumpers”, “Draft Animals”, “Definition”, “Bar Shoe”, “Beveled-edge Shoe”, “Cotts and Corrective Shoeing”, “Fundamentals of Correcting Faults in Gaits”, “Square-Toe Shoe”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on horses used for sports and utility.
