"The Nature of Dogs is an exquisite journey -- in powerful photographs and beautiful words -- into the diverse world of dogs. These remarkable images and evocative essays capture the true soul of dogs. I was deeply moved by this book." -- Jon Katz, author of Dog Days; Dispatches from Bedlam Farm
"Mary Ludington's affectionate and respectful portraits return us to our richest and most cherished memories, to times when we were so completely accepted by these mysterious and forgiving creatures, or times when they worked alongside us until they had nothing left. The range of their personalities is vast, their virtues legendary, their humor a refuge. But it is that curious way they have of glancing at us, quivering on the edge of language, which lingers long after they've wandered off, that opens for us, again, the mystery of our animal being." - Barry Lopez
