| Summary | "The Art of Horse-Shoeing: A Manual for Farriers" by William Hunting is a comprehensive guidebook on the specialized craft of horse-shoeing written in the late 19th century. The work serves as an essential resource for horse owners, farriers, and veterinary students, detailing the principles and practices crucial to the proper shoeing of horses. The manual emphasizes the significance of understanding the structure and function of a horse's hoof in order to execute effective shoeing techniques. The opening of the book introduces the field of farriery, which is portrayed not merely as an art but a specialized practice requiring extensive knowledge of horse anatomy and mechanics. It underlines that a farrier’s role goes beyond simply applying a shoe; it involves careful preparation of the hoof to ensure it retains its natural form and function. Dangerous consequences can arise from improper shoeing, leading to severe injuries over time, highlighting the necessity of proper training and awareness in the craft. This chapter establishes a foundation for the detailed lessons that follow, which delve into the nuances of hoof structure, preparation techniques, and the intricate relationship between hoof anatomy and shoeing outcomes.
