Summary: More than a textbook . . .
Review: Like many people, I was first introduced to this book while studying at horseshoeing school. From that standpoint, it is the ultimate textbook and a reference that should be read and carried by every practicing farrier. But it is also much more than that. The book is full of interesting and practical information that will appeal to any horse enthusiast. I found myself reading it for entertainment as well as education, as I learned about record-setting Belgians, the history of horseshoes, and other fascinating side-trips through equine fact and fancy. There is also essential information regarding lameness of the horse that is worth the price alone. This is definitely a book that belongs on the shelf of every horse owner.
