The Big Book of Dogs is a 384-page tome with more than 230 images - printed in duotone - taken by a wide range of dog-loving photographers, including John Drysdale, Mary Bloom, Tony Mendoza, Elliot Erwitt, Thomas Wester, Walter Chandoha, and Robin Schwartz. Accompanying the images are excerpts from such diverse writers as Rudyard Kipling and Sigmund Freud; personal stories and anecdotes from dog owners; and whimsical dog drawings by J.C. Suares himself. From an Australian Shepard who rescued tornado survivors to a beauty conscious pooch; from the dog who liked to nosedive into strawberry jelly to cinematic canines like Lassie and Toto. One can find them all in The Big Book of Dogs!
