Springs for Horse-Drawn Vehicles
Springs for Horse-Drawn Vehicles
Don Peloubet, Wheelwright & Susan Greene
ISBN 1-880499-17-7
254 pages
This is the sort of book which is very specific in its subject matter. It is not a book on general blacksmithing. For the person interested in the various springs used in the gears of horsedrawn vehicles this is by far the most informative and comprehensive tome I have yet seen, it is unsurpassed. The authors have done a magnificent job here and have brought forth an all inclusive study of the subject. Admittedly I have a long way to go in my learning curve on blacksmithing yet crafting horsedrawn vehicles is the main object in my pursuit of blacksmithing. This book is way ahead of me yet is limited to 250 copies so I got one now, while the gettin' is good. At about $60 per copy including shipping I surmise the cost will be much higher later through a rare book dealer. Get one now if you want one. Dan
