Every dog owner has a story; Edward Jesse collected hundreds. This treasury from Victorian England gathers true accounts of canine devotion, cleverness, and courage: dogs who crossed counties to find their way home, guarded their people through storms, grieved, rejoiced, and outwitted their supposed betters. Jesse, a naturalist and lifelong lover of dogs, tells each tale with obvious delight and warm regard for his subjects. It is the perfect companion for a walk with your own good dog. Settle in by the fire; the best friends in literature are waiting.
