This book is essential reading for those who are looking to expand their knowledge and for those who seek a more philosophical approach to this ancient craft. It starts as a journey of inquiry, reviewing the past and examining the present, objectively introducing to the reader the wider perspective of farriery; not just about ‘shoes on horses’ but as a benign manipulative therapy, which forms an integral part of the whole horse concept.

David W. Gill is a working farrier with his own private practice and more than 35 years of practical experience. He has contributed regularly to the farriers trade magazine FORGE and is a former columnist for Equestrian Life. Ernie Gray is the farrier who wrote "Equine Asymmetrical Dexterity," a landmark article originally published in American Farrier's Journal in 1989.
