Very useful book:
This is the perfect book for the new equine practitioner. I use it all of the time.
Essential reference:
This text provides a comprehensive and thorough coverage of all the situations that an ambulatory equine practitioner may meet in the field, with clear practical advice on anatomy,differential diagnosis, diagnostic techniques and treatment. If I had to choose one text to keep out of my entire library, this would be the one. After twenty years of practice experience, I still refer to this book with frequency. It would be a fantastic gift for a newly graduated equine veterinarian.
