Only a Dog

Eight years after his beloved wolfhound died, Grover Krantz wrote this book. A renowned anthropologist, Krantz was an expert in human and animal behavior. He also had a great love of dogs. This book is an insightful narrative and contemplation on Krantz's best friend, whom he called "a patient, affectionate, loyal companion -- with a sheer quantity of personality that made him almost human." The book was described by the Washington Post as "a funny, moving memoire [of] Krantz's gigantic wolfhound."
