I was watching the Mackenzi Lee Words & Whimsy chat when I heard about this book. I had enjoyed Bygone Badass Broads and when I found out that there was a similar premised book but DOGS I knew I had to read it ASAP. I love Lee's voice - snarky, informative, and hilarious.

Además de tratar sobre bellos lomitos, este libro enfatiza la estrecha relación entre humanos y caninos. A través de la historia y a lo largo del mundo hay ejemplos varios de cómo desde el entretenimiento a la guerra, los perros han sido parte importante de la historia humana.

Hay casos bien conocidos mundialmente pero otros ejemplos menos reconocibles que hacen de este un recorrido interesante. Las ilustraciones todas son muy bonitas.

I liked this better than the same author's Bygone Badass Broads, but I have the some complaint: very skimpy bios with not much information.

It's no secret that I'm a cat person, but still, I enjoyed this animal-themed look at history. It's like a small coffee table book or printed out Buzzfeed list--very breezy and internet-conversational in tone, in the vein of [b:Bygone Badass Broads: 52 Forgotten Women Who Changed the World|35888416|Bygone Badass Broads 52 Forgotten Women Who Changed the World|Mackenzi Lee|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1508951259l/35888416._SX50_.jpg|57405017]. The illustrations are very cute tho in some cases I wished for photos! Oh well that's what the internet is for I suppose!
