About this Item
Orange cloth with black lettering. Slight damage from dampstain to top edge on both covers, being more severe on the rear cover where the DJ adhered to the board. This does not translate to text or endpapers, and the boards are not warped or wrinkled. See photos. Text is clean and bright, no marks. DJ shows the same light dampstaining to top edge, light rubbing to edges and small chips at head of spine. Really a nice book despite its flaws."Greyfriars Bobby was a shaggy, silkyeared little ruffian of a Skye terrier, bred on the heathery slopes of the Scottish hills, who in his unparalleled loyalty and devotion chose to live out his days in the heart of the slums of nineteenth century Edinburgh. His true story has become a classic. When Auld Jock the shepherd died homeless and alone, Bobby followed his worshipped master to Greyfriars churchyard. Here he began a vigil that was to last fourteen years and was to come eventually to the attention of Queen Victoria." (from the jacket). Seller Inventory # A112014
