All the Dogs of My Life

First published in 1936, All the Dogs of My Life is a brilliantly written account of all fourteen pet dogs owned by Elizabeth von Arnim throughout her life. With an introduction by Nina Stibbe, bestselling writer and author of Went to London, Took the Dog . From a beloved dachshund to a trouble-seeking Great Dane, via all manner of dogs large and small, obedient and defiant, von Arnim brilliantly captures the bond between dogs and their owners. This witty and often poignant book is the closest the author came to writing a memoir. Despite her frequent exhortations that it wasn''t an autobiography, much is revealed about her fascinating life: her marriages, life in Germany, England and Switzerland, her children and her lovers.
