The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
Albert Payson Terhune's famous dog stories are beloved the world over. He brings more than knowledge to his stories—he brings an affectionate, discerning understanding of dog nature, its potential nobility and its potential weakness.
Here are Old Lee, a royal hunter, who earned a sirloin steak and as a consequence caused his devoted black friend Meshek to spend ninety days in jail; Jock, whose young master was a teller of tall tales until the night that they went together to the zoo and literally bearded a wolf in his den; Leggy, generally regarded as a fool pup not worth shooting, who developed into a superb sheep dog and loyal friend-to name just a few of the dogs whose personalities color the seventeen stories in this book.
