- Summary
- Horseshoeing has been around almost as long as domesticated horses. The first farrier society was organized in 1356, and in 1674, the British government recognized horseshoe makers as separate tradesmen from blacksmiths. Today, the trade continues to grow and develop, focusing on new horseshoe technology and the welfare of the animals. With more people moving to urban areas and the distance to travel to reach a farrier increasing, many farmers and horse owners took up horseshoeing for their own animals. Frank G. Churchill’s Practical and Scientific Horseshoeing is a manual for individuals hoping to save money and time by shoeing at home. The volume outlines the theory behind shoeing horses and simple instructions and tips for properly executing the task.
