Dogs Who Changed the World is a beautifully illustrated, heart-warming book
that celebrates all dogs and proves that every single one of them is absolute
magic.

Dogs have trotted at our collective side for tens of thousands of years, bound
up in the story of humanity. They have inspired great works of art, caught
spies, reconnected lost lovers, dragged the drowning to safety... or have just
haplessly and happily ruined everything.

These 50 tales acknowledge our unbreakable relationship with the dog, the
?rst-ever domesticated animal, and their dedication, heroism and unending
sense of fun. Along the way we'll meet big-boned Barry, the hefty St Bernard
credited with saving the lives of more than 40 lost souls in the Swiss Alps in
the 1800s. We'll discover Sigmund Freud's calm-inducing chow chow, Jo?, who
would sit in on his psychotherapy sessions (and never spilled a secret), and
feel the frustration of Sir Isaac Newton, whose little terror Diamond
apparently knocked over a candle and destroyed the physicist's most important
manuscripts.
