Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I am a pug fanatic so I naturally bought this book. I was,however, very disappointed in it. The pictures are gorgeous but have absolutely nothing to do with the text. The text is excellent in some portions of the book but is also very detailed and at times difficult to follow. Had the text been illustrated by relevant pictures, drawings, maps etc, the text would have been much more interesting and easy to understand. This book reads as if it were the author's Masters thesis that he decided to have made into a book without putting any extra work into it. With a bit more effort this could have been a great book!
