Fabulous photographs and poetic descriptions of the noble poodle. "Within these covers Mrs. Byron Rogers gives a complete story of the poodle -- the Old World origin of the three varieties, the introduction of the breed to America and its subsequent revival here; its gay disposition, its popularity as pet and companion, its care, its success as a show dog. All this, plus photographs of pillars of the breed which have brought into being the Poodle of this day." --Jacket copy.
