Water!Paperback, 9 January 2013

This scarce antiquarian book tells the heart-warming story of the quest for settlement in the harsh environment of north-east America's mountainous region. A wonderful tale sure to engross and entertain all readers, Water! Is a must-read for bookworms of all ages and especially so for fans or collectors of Terhune's delightful written work. Albert Payson Terhune (1872 - 1942) was a celebrated American author, journalist, and avid dog breeder, best known for his numerous novels detailing the adventures of his beloved collies. The first of his collie-based novels was Lad: A Dog(1919), which was an instant hit with both adults and children, reprinted over 80 times and made into a film in 1962. Other work by Terhune includes: True Dog Stories (1936), Real Tales of Real Dogs (1935), and My Friend The Dog (1926). Originally published in 1928, we are proud to republish this rare book with a new introductory biography of the author.
