Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Horse in the Stables and the Field, Vol. 1 of 2: His Varieties Management in Health and Disease Anatomy, Physiology, Etc
The demand for another edition of this work has afforded the opportunity for a careful revision. This, however, has taken the shape of addition rather than alteration, save in a few instances where the discoveries of the last decade have added materially to our scientific knowledge.
The art of equitation and the general management of horses in the stable and the field have not undergone any great change since the talented author gave to the world the present treatise, one of the best and most complete, suitable for the private owner. His admirable style has suffered as little as possible at my hands, the original text being retained, save where alteration was clearly desirable.
The most generous assistance has been accorded by many well known authorities, a list of whom will be found elsewhere.
