Simon had a new book published in August 2020. The Farrier is a photo-book: Dr Curtis says "Wherever there are horses there are farriers. My photo-book celebrates the farrier's role, the environment they work in, and the variety of horses they care for. It is the culmination of a 10-year project with one purpose: to share joy and pride for the craft of farriery."
