The Mythology of Dogs

Beschreibung

A literary and historical legacy of 67 dogs breeds covering the legend and lore of our best friend. From Afghan to Yorkie, the stories in this book are surprising, funny, touching, and philosophical and they go back to the dog who plugged the hole in Noah's Ark, the dog who hid under the skirt of Mary Queen of Scots at her beheading, and to the mythological dog that walked the decks of the Titanic and saved his master from drowning.

Autor

Richard Wilbur on Runners: "Runners is full of such engaging poems as 'Porches,' 'Wood for Winter,' and 'Witnesses.' In other places such as 'The Fallen' or 'Goat Castle, Natchez,' there is some deftly conveyed frisson. And then there are admirable poems ('Ravens,' 'Heron and Trout,' 'Ending Up in Horse Creek Canyon') which are informed by a large and deep sense of participation in the whole of life. Gerald Hausman has put together a strong, subtle and varied collection."
