A horse is only as sound as its feet, and this manual starts with the anatomy. Anton Lungwitz covers the bones, joints, and elastic structures of the hoof before teaching the craft of shoeing itself. The standard text for farriers and veterinarians alike. Learn the foot before you ever lift the hammer.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
