Overview

Thor is the human, heartwarming story of a remarkable German shepherd's first years. It chronicles, with respect and affection, the noble, heroic world of Thor's ancestors, his immense capacity for love, his zest, his growing maturity, and what the author calls his "Olympian serenity."David Douglas Duncan, one of the world's greatest photographers, is the author of twenty books, with sales worldwide of over two million copies. He says that "perhaps this simple story of discovery and love is my favorite."We think readers will make Thor a favorite of theirs, too - young and old, dog-lovers, lovers of fine photography, and just about everyone else who can see more than a little magic in man's relationship to a titan of the animal kingdom. Thor may well become one of the most beloved accounts of a dog ever published. (83/4 X 111/4, 100 pages, b&w photos)

An affectionate, heart-warming account of a great dog's first years. Duncan says, "after a lifetime of documenting wars, historic treasures . . . and many of man's adventures in our time, perhaps this simple story of discovery and love is my favorite." 82 duotone photos.
