Reported originally on page 534 of the October 15th, 1942 bulletin, as follows: ""With an introduction by James Thurber, this is a mansized collection of dog stories (save for an occasional essay) and aimed at all tastes from the sentimental to the farcical. Old timers include Jack London, W.H. Hudson, Kipling, O'Henry, Dunsany, Richard Harding Davis, etc; humor from E.B. White, Thurber, Don Marquis; contemporary classics in Eric Knight's Come Home. Kantor's Voice of Buge Ann, and James Street's Biscuit Kater. Favorites about favorites, in a book which should have long and wide appeal for all ages.
