Check out the Illustrated Atlas of Clinical Equine Anatomy and Common
Disorders of the Horse.  It's a two volume series -- volume one deals with
the musculoskeletal system and lameness disorders, volume two deals with
reproduction, internal medicine and skin.  They are awesome books with
great illustrations!  I don't own them (yet!) but I look at them whenever
I'm in a tack shop...they are some of the best I've seen.  They're not
cheap (which is why I don't own them (yet <g>)) -- I think they run about
$80 each.  I'm a real bibliophile (have over 200 books on horses) and have
been coveting these for quite a while.  Hmmm...maybe Santa will bring
them....<g>
