A Text-Book of Horseshoeing - For Horseshoers and Veterinarians #265232

The inauguration of the law requiring horseshoers to be ex amined emphasizes the need of a brief and easily understood text-book on theoretical and practical horseshoeing. At the re quest of the Royal Veterinary Commission, in charge of the Royal Veterinary School in Dresden, and many interested individuals, I have attempted to meet this need by condensing within the narrowest possible limits all that is essential to the horseshoer in the practice of his profession. The subject-matter has been cast into a logically arranged course of instruction; all that is superfluous and is found only in exhaustive treatises on shoeing has been omitted.
