Man's best friend has been memorialized in literature for centuries, and in this 1902 volume, Ethel E. Bicknell offers a wonderful selection of dog poems and remembrances spanning Ancient Rome to Victorian England. Curl up with your favorite dog and enjoy a collection that includes Cicero's observation on the faithfulness of dogs, Jonathan Swift's delightful poem about a Spaniel sitting for a painting, and a selection from George Eliot about a proud mother and her puppies, as well as works by Plutarch, William Shakespeare and Sir Walter Scott.
