Summary: Wealth of Information about APT
Comment: I discovered Albert Payson Terhune's books back in high school and fell in love with all his collies. I scoured all the old second hand book stores in San Francisco to find more of his stories and even though I've now passed the half century mark I still enjoy his tales.

While they might not be "classic" literature, they have a wonderful ability to pull you into the tale immediately.

I always wondered what Mr. Terhune was like in life - and this biography does a great job in filling in the details.

Mr. Terhune imbued his books with a genuine love of his subject - and of course, his love for his beautiful home, Sunnybank.

Mr. Litvag has produced a very readable bio about a larger-than-life writer - and has done it with style and flair - and love.
Highly recommended!

Comment: The title says it. Most biographers of Terhune consider this work negative, if not sensationalist in it's attitude towards the author and his life. Worthwhile in it's detail -- topics not often covered -- but, disjointed by the writer's point of view.

Summary: A valuable resource back in print
Comment: This is by far the best biography of Albert Payson Terhune, famous writer of dog stories. It does much to capture the essence of the man, Sunnybank and his stories about collies. It is well indexed and contains only the most minor mistakes. It belongs in the library of anyone interested in the literature about dogs. Long out of print, it is now available in this softcover edition.
