Regal, elegant, affectionate, calculating, and of course utterly
adorable, the cat has been part of our lives for millennia. The Cat
Book pairs stunning historical illustrations with informative and
amusing text in a tour of feline history from the earliest days of
civilisation to the twenty-first century. Taking in the cat goddess
of Ancient Egypt, where people shaved their eyebrows to mourn the
death of a cat, the medieval Irish law that calculated a cat's
value at three cows, Samuel Johnson's doting care for his
oyster-loving cat Hodge, Oscar, the ship's cat that survived three
shipwrecks in the Second World War, and the cats of famous people
from Cardinal Richelieu to Edward Lear, this is the perfect gift
for the cat lover - a guide to the role of cats in history and the
people who have loved them.
