Book Description
Modern scholarship has only recently confirmed the amazing revelation that the History of European Civilization is, to a very remarkable extent, the History of the Yorkshire Terrier. Hang-dog cynics and snappish curs of lesser breeds need only peruse this gallery of Illustrious Yorkies to be persuaded of the truth of the proposition: "The jorke is on you!"
From the Back Cover
PROFILES IN YORKAGE "A genuine portrait of Frederick the Great was a thing I could nowhere hear of in Berlin itself. That is strange, but that is true. This I find to be one of the saddest of those few defects in the world which are easily capable of remedy." THOMAS CARLYLE (1854)
Lift up your sorrowful head, Tom Carlyle. Here's the book you've been waiting for! With one grand stroke, "Yorkies in Europe" remedies not only the very defect that so saddened Carlyle-but 26 others, none less sad! Here, for the first time ever, are gathered together for the world's wonder and edification: the Genuine Faces of the Pantheon of Twenty-Seven Who Shaped European History.
