Book Review -- "The Pawprints of History"

    Today, I would like to review and recommend a book that has been available for awhile.  "The Pawprints of History" written by Stanley Coren is a great dog book.  In this book, the author relates how dogs have played a role in the lives of some of the great men and women of history.  Some chapters focus on one person and how their dogs made a difference in their life.  The chapters about Prince Rupert and his dog Boye and Richard Wagner and his dogs are very informative.  Some chapters deal with groups of people and how dogs helped them.  For instance, one of the best chapters in the book details how different saints interacted with dogs.  In this chapter, the story of St Roche and his dog is the best.
     I don't believe that there are any weak chapters in this book.  I've read this book more than once, and each time I find it to be fun and educational reading.  The book is well-written and well-researched.  All dog lovers will certainly enjoy "The Pawprints of History".
