This work was originally published in 1851, and was designed as a guide to the healthcare of domestic farm animals. It covers a wide range of animal wellbeing, from the processes of milking, to their circulatory system and physiology. This is an excellent work for anyone with an interest in the history of veterinary practices. We are also republishing this book with a brand new introduction to the history of cattle farming. Here is a short extract from the work's introduction: 'Our system proposes, under all circumstances, to restore the diseased organs to a healthy state, by coöperating with the vitality remaining in those organs, by the exhibition of sanative means, and, under all circumstances, to assist, and not oppose, nature in her curative processes. Poisonous substances, blood-letting, or processes of cure that act pathologically, cannot be used by us. The laws of animal life are physiological: they never were, nor ever will be, pathological.'
