This book contains a detailed and comprehensive guide to horseshoeing, first published in 1883. Profusely illustrated and full of timeless, practical information information, &quote;Haney's Horse Shoers' Manual&quote; will appeal to modern farriers and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage equestrian literature.
