The Hoof of the Horse will take you on a journey tracing the development of the equine hoof, from its beginning in the mare's uterus all the way to old age. It is written in three sections which explore; the physical nature of the hoof, the five ages of the hoof, and the effects upon the hoof. We know that the shape of hoof is linked to soundness and good health, within this book, why and how the hoof changes its form is explained in detail.

There are 250 beautiful colour illustrations which illuminate the text. It is a book to be read by anyone interested in the horse and how its unique hoof works. Much of the information in this book has not been published elsewhere. Ten years of scientific research into the hoof is explained simply giving the reader a deeper knowledge of the hoof than has ever been possible before.
