A follow-up fiction to Edgar Sawtelle’s young life, his story continues with his and young wife’s dog breading and training farm during WW II. The well written language of this author brings together tender and fearsome family dynamics and dogs awesome abilities and friendship. Not a child’s dog story, or Rin Tin Tin’s heroics but a deeply stirring intelligent tale of mute man and dogs lives.
