A compendium of practical and experimental farriery, originally suggested by reason and confirmed by practice. Equally adapted for the convenience of the gentleman, the farmer, the groom, and the smith. Interspersed with such remarks, and elucidated with such cases, as evidently tend to insure the prevention, as well as to ascertain the cure of disease. By William Taplin, surgeon, author of "The gentleman's stable directory, 2 vols." the twelfth edition of which is now published.
