Item description from seller

Fifth and best edition of this massive work, much revised and expanded. The first edition came out as a fairly modest work in 1877. This, the final edition, runs to 733pp and is roughly a third longer than the 4th ed. of 1889, incorporating the author's other work, 'Age and Soundness of Horse', much new material and nearly 100 additional illustrations, both in-text and as plates. Publisher's black buckram lettered in gilt, black endpapers, 24pp publisher's catalogue at rear dated 1898. Very neat internal repairs to splits around spine edges using period matching cloth and now a near VG attractive copy. Capped withers? Poll evil? Or perhaps your horse has just been struck by lightning. If you've ever been tempted to look a gift horse in the mouth, but didn't know what you might find there, then this is the book for you, with numerous diagrams of equine dentition, good and bad. Rare book, with no other copies of this edition available online worldwide at time of listing.

Store description

I have recently moved the majority of my stock (c.20,000 volumes) to a beautiful new book-house in Szeged, Hungary. Most of these have been in storage for a number of years and have never been offered for sale online. My stock is hand-picked and consists principally of literary first editions in English, French, German and Hungarian. Over the coming months and years I will be uploading these books to ABE, launching a Hungarian booksearch service and starting my own publishing company. Watch this space as there will be some real rarities for sale. Please contact me with any wants in the field of 19th & 20th century literature as I may have just what you want in stock.…
