Rational Horseshoeing is a comprehensive guide to the art and science of horseshoeing, written by Wildair and originally published in 1873. The book provides detailed instructions and advice on every aspect of horseshoeing, from selecting the right materials and tools to fitting and shaping horseshoes to the specific needs of individual horses.Wildair draws on his extensive experience as a farrier to explain the principles of good horseshoeing, emphasizing the importance of understanding the anatomy and physiology of horses in order to provide them with the best possible care. He covers a wide range of topics, including the different types of horseshoes and their applications, the proper methods for trimming and balancing hooves, and the techniques for forging and fitting horseshoes.In addition to practical advice, Rational Horseshoeing also includes discussions of the history and cultural significance of horseshoeing, as well as the ethics and responsibilities of the profession. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an invaluable resource for both novice and experienced farriers, as well as anyone interested in the care and welfare of horses.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
