"THE GIANT BOOK OF DOG NAMES is a compendium of over 5,000 dog names and their meanings--an exhaustive canine version of the many, exceedingly popular "baby name" books and second to none among dog books today in its scope and content. Featured are approximately 100 informative, thumbnail biographies of famous dogs in categories such as "dogs owned by presidents and politicians, "dogs owned by rulers and royalty," "famous dogs in literature and poetry," "dogs in myth and legend," and more. This provides interesting insight into how notable dog owners selected the names of their canine companions and elevates THE GIANT BOOK OF DOG NAMES beyond the realm of resource book by making it a good, informative read, as well"--
