title: [Local and regional veterinary history].
abstract: Continuing a review, written in 1992, an overview is given of the five recent studies on local themes. The author emphasizes that telling a story of local traditions and usages, of striking personalities or personal experiences can illuminate the problems of a broader national or even international context. He points to the fact that the local archives contain many materials of veterinary historical relevance waiting for exploitation.
