Cats, as depicted in art through history and in contemporary works as well. Loads of images of a feline theme and a terrific tome for a cat lover. I am always irked, at putting this cute copy in my library on my book cases because of its incredibly weird shape!!! Argh!!! I have several cat books like this!! I must tell you of them! Irritation station! But lovely cat pix nevertheless!
