Comprehensive and international in scope, this equine dictionary features 8,000 horse-related words and terms. Have you ever wondered what a pair of "blinkers'' was used for? Or how a horse could be "coon-footed" or "cow-hocked?" Or why you wouldn't want a "hat rack" in your barn? The answers to these questions and thousands more can be found in Horsewords: The Equine Dictionary. It clearly explains the meanings of 8,000 horse-related words and terms--many in common use, some antiquated--which makes it not only an invaluable modern reference but also an outstanding research aid. Horsewords also clarifies many commonly encountered veterinary terms. An indispensable reference book that should be on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in horses. Maria Belknap is an avid horsewoman who rides and writes in Southern California. 472 pp 6 x 9
