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!
Derry, a pedigreed airedale, lived in the wild open country of the Northwest. Quite different was Derry's partner, Mac—half Newfoundland and half husky. This is the story of these two dogs and their master, Ed Sibley. It recounts their adventures in the wilderness—and the bravery of the dogs against man and beast who tried to do their master harm. Sometimes it was a battle with wolves, again it was a fierce fight with a bear, once it was Derry's partner that succeeded in running down a criminal and saving his master from disgrace.
And there is something beyond story in this book. The author knows dogs and writes about them with understanding. No one can read the story of Derry and Mac without learning a great deal about the way to handle a dog—and without loving dogs more than ever as the finest companions both at play and at work.

Please note that most used copies we get do not include the dust jackets, and will often look like the cloth cover to the left.
