A copious index renders the book complete.”—Live Stock journal. “The author, who is the Principal Veterinary Surgeon of the Army, has probably had more experience of horses than most men now living ; and although in his brief preface he modestly admits that there is no pretension to novelty in the treatment of any of the subjects he deals with, he has managed very skilfully to combine the results of his own extensive experience with all that is most useful in that of those who have preceded him. In a treatise of this kind, the chief value lies in its details, and these are so elaborate in the present work as practically to exhaust the subject. The work is a valuable one, not only to the inexperi- enced horse-keeper, but to all who have to do with horses, whether as breeders, trainers, or attendants.”—Sporting Chronicle.
