About This Item
New York: W. H. B. Creagh, Publisher, 1895. First Edition. Cloth. Very good. F. LUND, L. RENAULT. First edition. 8vo; [1-4] 4-105 [13]pp; gilt stamped blue cloth over board; illustrated in the text; book plate to front pastedown, ownership in ink to front free endpaper; text followed by 11pp of advertisements for equine and riding services; scuffing to cover edges and loss of gilt; very good. Interesting book plate on the front paste-down from Margaret S. [Slade] and Edwin Paul Shattuck. Edwin Paul (1873-1964) was a wall street attorney, judge and a friend of President Herbert Hoover. The ownership inscription dated 1895 was no doubt a relative of Margaret.
Nicely illustrated book covering the history, anatomy and physiology of the horse as well as horsemanship instruction.
