  note: Collected from various authors, chiefly the works of Henry Bracken and William Gibson. Cf. Pref. The material was later reproduced in the author's Pharmacopoeia hippiatrica.
  note: The first edition appeared in 1753. Cf. Sir Frederick Smith, The early hist. of veterinary literature, volume 2, page 72.
  note: P. E. Lafosse's method of trepanning glandered horses (described on pages 114-132) is set forth in his Traité sur le véritable siége de la morve des chevaux, et les moyens d'y remédier, Paris, 1749. Bartlet's appendix (pages 342-370) is apparently an abstract of Lafosse's Observations et découvertes faites sur des chevaux, avec une nouvelle pratique sur la ferrure, Paris, 1754. The plates are copies of those in that work.
  note: "Written by a human surgeon, and first published in 1753, this popular work was primarily a compilation of earler writers. It went into many editions, the first edition is extremely rare, and the early editions are scarce." James Cummins Bookseller 2009 description of 1770 edition for sale for $1,250.
