Summary

This book contains a detailed and comprehensive guide to horseshoeing, first published in 1883. Profusely illustrated and full of timeless, practical information, "Haney's Horse Shoers' Manual" will appeal to modern farriers and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage equestrian literature. Contents include: "Horse Shoes in History", "Theory and Practice", "Preparing the Foot", "The Shoe", "Choosing a Shoe", "Cutting off the Heels", "Fitting the Shoe", "Nails", "Nailing on the Shoe", "Shoeing With Leather", "The Hind Shoe", "Cutting", "Removing", "General Observations", etc. 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.
