{"product_id":"9781473341845","title":"Lights and Shadows in a Canine Life - With Sketches of Travel","description":"This is a delightful and light-hearted account of how a stray dog became the companion of a young English lady. Whilst at first glance a seemingly simple and lovely story, this is actually a riveting account of late 19th century European high society, as we follow 'Ugly' and his mistress on a grand tour of Europe, including scrapes with the police in Germany, disastrous hotels in Vienna and opera in Dubrovnik, all while remaining a touching story that could make anybody want the love of a dog in their life. First published in 1871. This text has been republished here for its historical and cultural significance. Including a specially commissioned introduction on dogs in fiction.","brand":"Read Books Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130531168496,"sku":"9781473341845","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781473341845_p0.jpg?v=1763600013","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781473341845","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
