Description from the seller
Essay on the Studs or methodical examinations of the proper means to establish, direct, and make the Studs prosper. Followed by two short treatises. In one, an easy method is shown to thoroughly examine the horses one wishes to buy, so as to choose them wisely and not be deceived by the horse-traders. In the other, the mechanics of the bit are treated, and the art of fitting it well to the different mouths of horses is taught. There is also added a supplementary chapter in the form of an appendix on the prejudices, abuses, and ignorance of farriery.
A volume in octavo, bound in full period marbled calf with a spine titled in raised bands. The binding is heavily worn with loss of leather but nevertheless solid. XX-288 pp. 4 folding plates. Interior very fresh, no foxing. Complete. (ct-H30)
