"An anthology for dog lovers by famous writers who have admired and loved the dog. That such company includes the greatest will be seen from a glance through the authors. The pieces, prose as much as poetry, are good reading in themselves, and make it a book to take up time and time again. Vernon Stokes, admitted master of our modern dog artists, has contributed sixteen special studies of various breeds."
