Building the Equine Hoof.
By David M Hood, Connie K Swenson and A Bruce Johnson.

An excellent 45 page resource with chapters on hoof care, anatomy, growth and nutrition, disorders and diseases. Fascinating explanations supported by beautiful colour photos which in some cases are taken at a microscopic level to enable a true understanding of the structure of the hoof.

The standout feature of this book is a series of semi-transparent pages enabling the reader to see where and how the bones fit together inside the hoof.
