BLACK BRUCE

by ‧ RELEASE DATE: Aug. 25, 1938

This is the third of these somewhat amateurish dog stories, but in spite of this lack of the professional touch, the stories seem to strike a note of authenticity and to carry over an idea of the lives of the individual dogs and the factual background. Black Bruce was not quite as good a puppy as his brothers and sisters, so was given away -- and ultimately found his metier on a cattle farm on Prince Edward's Island, as guardian of the property of his beloved master. The illustrations, where only the dogs are depicted, are good; where human figures come in they seem stiff and dated.
