Description: Jilly Cooper has written a tribute to the role of animals in wartime. From the pigeons carrying vital messages to and from the beleaguered city during the Siege of Paris to dogs sniffing out mines for the British invasion force in World War II, this is a vivid record of man's inhumanity to animals, and an astonishing story of courage.
