The Critter and Other DogsPaperback, 15 December 2010

This book contains a collection of seventeen delightful stories with a number of dogs as their heroes, written by the seminal writer of dog-based literature, Albert Payson Terhune. Terhune was an avid dog-breeder and brought to his stories an impressive knowledge of the subject. On top of his, Terhune's heart-warming tales were written with an unparalleled affection for his subjects, providing an uncanny understanding of the animals which seemed to champion their marvellous potential and proven nobility. A mixture of fiction and non-fiction, this wonderful collection is sure to appeal to dog-lovers and will make for a worthy addition to any collection of Terhune's work. Albert Payson Terhune was an American dog breeder, author, and journalist, most famous for his books about dogs. This rare text is proudly republished here with a new introductory biography of its author.
