"The Horse's Friend" is a vintage handbook on the diseases and ailments common to horses feet and legs, including corns, interfering, crooked feet, feet that are too long or short, etc. A book for the horse-owner as well as the horseshoer, it contains chapters on diagnosis, anatomy, remedies, prevention, shoeing, and much more-all written in plain language and accompanied by simple directions and handy tips. This volume is highly recommended for modern horse owners, and it would make for a wonderful addition to collections of vintage equestrian literature. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on maintaining and caring for horses.
