Sinopsis

In "Dogs and All About Them," Robert Leighton offers an extensive exploration of canine companions, merging scientific insights with heartfelt narratives. The book meticulously delves into the history, breeding, and behavioral traits of various dog breeds, while also emphasizing the profound bond between humans and dogs. Leighton's narrative is both informative and accessible, characterized by a warm, engaging prose style that invites both the layperson and the canine enthusiast to appreciate the distinct qualities of dogs. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, this work reflects the growing interest in canine breeding and care during a time when dogs were increasingly recognized not just as working animals but as beloved family members. Robert Leighton was an avid dog lover and a prolific author, whose own experiences with canines profoundly shaped his views on their importance in human lives. His professional background in editing and journalism supplemented his ability to communicate complex ideas relating to breeding practices and veterinary care with clarity and passion. Through his personal anecdotes and observations, Leighton presents dogs not only as subjects of study but as companions deserving of our respect and affection. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in understanding dogs in a holistic sense, encompassing their history, behavior, and the deep emotional connections they forge with humans. Leighton's work serves as both a reference guide and a heartfelt tribute, making it an essential read for dog lovers, breeders, and those intrigued by the intricate dynamics of the human-dog relationship.

    Step right up for the most uproariously irreverent chapter of Gilbert Abbott A’Beckett’s Comic History of England—where crowns are comedy props and history’s biggest egos trip over their own dogma! 
    Meet James I, the "Wisest Fool in Christendom," who preached divine right while his pet favorite, the Duke of Buckingham, turned the court into a scandalous farce. Then comes Charles I, whose stubbornness cost him his crown (and his head), thanks to a Parliament with a very sharp grievance list—and a little help from the ill-fated Earl of Stafford. 
    Enter Oliver Cromwell, the Puritan party-pooper who banned Christmas, crushed Ireland, and somehow made republicanism duller than a Sunday sermon. But just when you think the chaos can’t get worse, in stumbles Richard Cromwell, his hapless son, who proved that ruling England was not a hereditary talent. Spoiler: The Republic collapses faster than a house of cards in a hurricane. 
    Narrated with wicked wit by Charles Featherstone, this uproarious installment skewers the Stuarts like a royal roast—where kings are klutzes, parliaments are punchlines, and the only thing sacred is the absurdity of power.

    New York Times bestselling author Ali Wentworth offers a comedic look at family, friendship, and lessons learned during the Covid-19 pandemic in her new collection of laugh-out-loud comic vignettes. 
    Like many, Ali Wentworth spent the pandemic seesawing between highs, lows, and baking an unnecessary amount of chocolate cake. Between binging every tv show in existence to conquering TikTok to becoming a (semi) empty-nester, Ali experienced her share of turmoil (including an early case of Covid), but she also grew a little, learned a lot, and found comfort in some unexpected people and places. 
    In Ali’s Well That Ends Well, Wentworth turns her gimlet eye to the year no one saw coming. With her signature irreverent style, she shares the most hysterical, absurd, and sometimes trying episodes that her family endured during the terrible global pandemic. Thoroughly relatable, absolutely charming, and filled with moments both hilarious and poignant, this terrific collection once again showcases the comedic genius of a beloved star who is “the girlfriend you want to have a glass of wine with, the one who makes you laugh because she sees the funny and the absurd in everything"" (Huffington Post).
