Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

1928. The Algonquin Round Table was an informal group of famous New
York writers who lunched together at the Algonquin Hotel in the
1920s and '30s. The self-appointed leader of the group was
Alexander Woollcott. A large, stout man, he was an author, critic
and actor noted for his sharp, cruel wit. A very delightful book
about three dogs. Contents: The Passing of Nicholas; The Story of
Verdun Belle; and My Friend Egon. Very sweetly illustrated. See
