Dogs: A Classic Illustrated Treasury

Front Flap: "DOGS have been immortalized in literature throughout the ages, inspiring works from such great poets as Ogden Nash and Rudyard Kipling. This eclectic collection of canine poetry captures man's best friend in all its glory from "The First Friend" to "A Boy and a Pup" to "A Dog's Eye View." Richly illustrated with antique paintings and drawings, this enchanting treasury will charm dog lovers of every age."

Back Flap: "The Blue Lantern Studio is a design group headed by Harold and Sandra Darling, founders and former owners of The Green Tiger Press. In addition to illustration and graphic design capabilities, the Darlings are avid collectors of old illustrated books and antique illustrations. Their endless library of beautiful collectibles led them to develop a very successful series of classic illustrated books that includes A Child's Garden of Verses and Favorite Fairy Tales (both published by Chronicle Books). The Studio's devotion to powerful imagery and the highest production values has earned them a variety of honors for illustration, graphic design, and literary merit.

A creative agency with a wide range of talents, the Blue Lantern Studio is based in San Diego, California."
