"An essential purchase for all dog lovers, this book features anonymous snapshots of dogs from the turn of the cenutry to the early 1950s. Catherine Johnson's collection - with its small format, unpretentious photographs and days-gone-by aesthetic - not only reveals a love for 'man's best friend', but also presents a sophisticated selection made with a keen eye for the unusual within mundane." "This book features hundreds of dogs in all kinds of settings; under the Christmas table or in the sea; posing for the family portrait or being squeezed tightly by an over-enthusiastic toddler; and a Chihuahua in a tea cup or a Great Dane standing as tall as its young owner."--BOOK JACKET.Hasting, Julia is the author of 'Dog Years' with ISBN 9780714848037 and ISBN 0714848034.
