Pugspotting-A Charming & Delightful Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: PugSpotting: A True History of How Pugs Saved Civilization (Paperback)
As someone who doesn't even own a dog, to say nothing of an apparently inimitable pug,this book makes one want to go out and get one! The author has created a delightful read with many charming pictures. the writing is very witty and clever. The historical perspective and pug trivia adds a great deal of interest. All in all, this book was a fun read and is highly recommended.

PugSpotting a Cornucopia of Research,
By A Customer
This review is from: PugSpotting: A True History of How Pugs Saved Civilization (Paperback)
Other books may mention the history, but they usually get the names and dates wrong. This book accurately depicts the historical personages who owned pugs. But it is also brimming with fun pug trivia. PugSpotting contains information and paintings that I've never read nor seen anywhere else, and I think I own every pug book that's out. This is clearly a subject the author loves. Its appeal is in the details. And in the images of the pugs themselves. Personally, I found it such an engaging read that I couldn't put it down!

pugspotting,
By A Customer
This review is from: PugSpotting: A True History of How Pugs Saved Civilization (Paperback)
an interesting story of how pugs influenced different moments in history, with both color and black and white pictures of pugs...a pug lover's delight... the little charmers show to their best advantage in this well-written book. I particularly liked the picture of the pugs intently peering into the refrigerator, with their tails tightly curled. The story of 'pugs in history' makes it a must for pug fans; pictures make it a must for anyone who likes dogs and what they do.
