Further Adventures Of Lad PDF Download

"If you are a dog lover, no doubt you'll like this book." -New York Tribune "There have been many great collies, but few have had the good fortune of being bred by a newspaper man. 'Sunnybank Lad' was great, as every dog-lover knows who has read Mr. Terhune's books about him, and he enjoyed the luxury of growing up from fluffy puppyhood at the knee of a man who could tell the world of his keen wits, his great heart, his muscles of steel and his mighty soul - for Lad was material for the psychologist as well as the physiologist. Here is a dog with 'the sporting instincts of a hundred generations of thoroughbreds,' a dog who was smart enough to graduate at five months from a clumsy puppy to a watchdog of high degree. It would be a shame to dull the reader's enjoying by revealing all the brave, wise, loyal things which Mr. Terhune tells about this dog. But it may at least be said that if Lad were in the movies he would eclipse all the merely human thrillers." -The Christian Advocate "Albert Payson Terhune breeds collies, lives with them, loves them. Lad was his closest friend. Because so many have written to Mr. Terhune asking for more stories this second book was written. Lad is a gentleman born, a hero as a matter of course, a thoughtful and trustworthy member of the family. His story is full of adventures and humorous anecdotes." -Publishers Weekly "Some more of the very human doing of that delightful collie who was the hero of an earlier tale, 'Lad: A Dog....Lad is of course the center of many exciting and humorous incidents, a thoroughbred always, and a much beloved member of the family.'" -Book Review Digest "The book is the work of an ardent dog-lover and no one can read these delightful sketches without feeling what a privilege it is to be admitted to the friendship and to obtain the devotion of an animal like Lad.'" -The New York Times "Lad's new adventures will prove as entertaining as his early experiences, and are written with the same understanding of dog nature which made the other stories universally read." -The Springfield Republican "Lad has already acquired more than a million friendly readers who will welcome this continuation." -New York Post "Begins with his coming to Sunnybank as an adorable collie puppy, gives various episodes in his often heroic career and ends with his death 'on guard.'" -The Open Shelf "Do you like dogs? Because if you don't there is no earthly use in calling your attention to 'Further Adventure of Lad,' by Albert Payson Terhune, but if you are of those to whom the friendship of one of these animals has been given, you will hardly lay down the book before finishing it." -The Literary Digest "More tales of the well loved collie, written with his usual tenderness and understanding." -Continent
