Charles James Korinek

Charles James Korinek was an American veterinary writer born in 1880. Surviving catalog records connect him with a group of animal-care manuals published in the 1910s, including The Veterinarian, Notes on Veterinary Anatomy, and works on diseases of horses, swine, sheep, poultry, and other domestic animals.

His writing appears to have been aimed at practical use rather than theory alone. The books are organized as working references for symptoms, causes, treatment, and basic anatomy, which suggests he wrote for farmers, animal owners, students, and veterinary practitioners who needed clear, direct information.

Reliable biographical detail about his personal life is limited in the sources I could confirm. However, his publications have been preserved by projects such as Project Gutenberg, the Internet Archive, and library catalogs, which has helped keep his veterinary texts available to modern readers interested in the history of animal medicine.
