Horse Ailments Explained

An absolutely brilliant little book and a nust-have for all medical kits.

"This book is about the elements of horses, its object is to help you, the owner, rider, groom, or onlooker to gain a better understanding of the horse in health and illness.  If, for example, your horse has a swollen leg or a smutty nose, you will be better able to appreciate their significance in relation to what is actually happening to the horse. 

But this is not designed as a do yourself guide to amateur diagnosis and home remedies.  You should hold your horse - any horse - in greater esteem than to come between it and those professionally qualified to attend to its needs in health.  It has been truly said that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing and nowhere is this more true than in medicine."

Paperback.  Old, but good useable condition.
