An Appeal For The Horse (1866)

An Appeal For The Horse is a book written by George Hamilton in 1866. The book is a passionate plea for the humane treatment of horses, particularly those used for transportation and labor. Hamilton argues that horses are often overworked, mistreated and subjected to inhumane conditions. He provides numerous examples of cruel practices, such as the use of tight-fitting harnesses, excessive whipping, and the lack of proper food and water. Hamilton also highlights the economic benefits of treating horses well, as healthier and happier horses are more productive and efficient. The book is a powerful call to action for all those who care about animal welfare and the ethical treatment of animals. It remains a classic work on the subject and is still relevant today, over 150 years after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
