The Mammoth Book of Cats

by Mark Bryant (Editor)

The ultimate cat-lover's literary anthology - 200,000 words on cats from ancient Greece to today. Everything feline from the finely honed lyrics of Keats and Baudelaire to the madcap waggery of Don Marquis and Edward Lear; from Rabelais and Emerson to Twain and Runyon packs The Mammoth Book of Cats. With odes, fables, stories, limericks, songs, nursery rhymes, or just plain caterwauls, Mark Bryant has assembled a fascinating international compendium of the cat, drawing on sources from all periods of history and revealing every aspect of its four-footed subject.
