This volume comprises a collection of historical articles on the construction and design of horseshoes, with information on methodology, tools, common problems, and more. Written in clear, concise language and full of valuable information and tips, this collection will be of considerable value for the novice farrier or discerning equestrian. It would make for a worthy addition to any collection of equine literature. The articles contained herein include: 'A Horseshoer'; 'Shoeing and Balancing the Light Harness Horse'; 'The Art of Horse-Shoeing for Farriers'; and 'The Iron Age of Horseshoe and its Derivatives'. We are proud to republish this vintage book, now complete with a new and specially commissioned introduction on the care and management of horses.
