"Rowan intertwines anecdotes and dozens of photographs with hard-to-stop-reading stories that track the canine legacy on America's democracy." -St. Louis Post-Dispatch "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog," Harry Truman once said. Perhaps that's why, for much of our Republic's history, there have been two top dogs at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue-one with two legs, one with four.

"Rowan intertwines anecdotes and dozens of photographs with hard-to-stop-reading stories that track the canine legacy on America's democracy." -St. Louis Post-Dispatch "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog," Harry Truman once said. Perhaps that's why, for much of our Republic's history, there have been two top dogs at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue-one with two legs, one with four. First Dogs, by distinguished journalist Roy Rowan and researcher Brooke Janis, tells the whole doggone story, from the days before there was a White House to Barack Obama's adopted presidential pup, Bo. Here's a lighthearted romp through American history, packed with drawings and paintings from early America, plus photographs, starting with Abraham Lincoln's Fido. Not only did these four-footed goodwill ambassadors humanize their distinguished masters, they offered them a little unconditional love in a loveless town. First Dogs gives dog lovers and history lovers a new angle on presidential history and is more fun than you can shake a stick (or rubber bone) at. "A doggone delight that will leave you sitting up and begging for more. I give it four paws up." -Dan Rather "It's the charming photos that make First Dogs so appealing." -USA Today "Succeeds in keeping the tail of trivia wagging the dog of American history. This one is fur keeps." -People "Witty, engaging . . . This illustrated and light-hearted tribute to and appreciation of presidential dogs is a true delight." -Chattanooga Times
