Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Readers with an insatiable curiosity about all things canine will devour this unique anthology of writings about dogs, ranging from the fifth century B.C.E. to today. Poems, stories, sayings, and excerpts from novels and letters illustrate the centuries-old relationship between human and dog. Each chapter explores a different theme?friendship, dogs as pets, breeding, the work of dogs, and, sadly, death. Writers represented include Shakespeare, Chaucer, Mark Twain, John Steinbeck, Emily Bronte, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and Samuel Butler, who reminds us, "The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too." For popular pet and literature collections.?Peggie Partello, Keene State Coll. Lib., N.H.
