A propos de cet article

Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating and timely exploration of the vital role dogs played in the First World War. The author, writing in 1917, captures the burgeoning awareness of canine capabilities in wartime and details the many ways in which dogs were trained and deployed to assist armies across Europe. From serving as sentries and scouts to locating the wounded and even hauling machine guns, the book delves into the diverse roles dogs fulfilled in the conflict, highlighting their extraordinary intelligence, loyalty, and courage. Beyond the practical details of training and deployment, the author explores the deeper significance of the human-canine bond in times of war. He eloquently emphasizes the comfort and support dogs provided to soldiers, and the immense contributions they made to reducing casualties and rescuing wounded men. The book goes beyond simply documenting the historical use of dogs, it presents a compelling argument for their importance in future military endeavors. The author's impassioned plea for greater recognition of dogs' capabilities speaks to the timeless bond between man and his best friend, and the enduring power of this relationship to improve the lives and well-being of both. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
