Summary |
"The Jewish Dog is the story of Caleb, a unique dog born in Germany in 1935. When events separate him from his Jewish owners, he is adopted by a Nazi family, employed by the SS as a military dog, and witnesses first-hand the rise of Nazism and the Holocaust. It is a story of heroism, survival, and brave friendship, told from the perspective of an intelligent creature who views the world from only 20 inches above the ground--yet who sees more clearly than many humans. Deeply ironic and even humorous, The Jewish Dog wonders what, if anything, distinguishes man from dog."--Back cover. |
