The book showcases a menagerie of creatures--pandas, tigers, bats, lions, orangutans, cobras, bullfrogs, chimpanzees, wolves, porcupines, elephants, owls, armadillos, among many others--as they have never been seen before. Shedding light on Flach''s images will be an accessible collection of texts, written and edited by author Lewis Blackwell.

Depuis l''époque lointaine où le loup s''est pour la première fois glissé dans la caverne de nos ancêtres afin de partager la chaleur de leurs feux, Canis lupus familiaris n''a jamais cessé de tenir compagnie à l''homme. Dans cet ouvrage étonnant qui fait suite à Equus, universellement salué par la critique, le photographe Tim Flach se penche à nouveau sur les liens qui unissent l''homme et l''animal, nous offrant un regard unique sur l''un de nos compagnons les plus proches. Des spécimens exquis présentés dans les expositions canines de Crufts et du Westminster Kennel Club aux chiens abandonnés recueillis par les bénévoles des associations de protection des animaux, en passant par les greyhounds de course, les lévriers afghans, les komondors hongrois, les chiens chinois à crête ou nos plus humbles compagnons domestiques, Tim Flach étudie en profondeur nos relations avec les chiens et nous aide à mieux comprendre "le meilleur ami de l''homme".

Since the wolf first snuck into the caves of our ancestors to take warmth from the fire, dogs have been man''s constant companion. Dogs, multi-award-winning photographer Tim Flach''s stunning follow-up to the critically acclaimed Equus, delves deep into the psyche of this enduring bond with Canis familiaris to present an exquisite study of "man''s best friend." From specimens on show at Crufts and Westminster to shelter dogs lovingly rescued by volunteers; from the grace and agility of racing greyhounds to adored domestic companions; from Afghan hounds to Hungarian komondors to Chinese crested, the images featured in Dogs promise to deliver one of the most appealing, popular, and exciting photographic tributes to dogs ever published. Praise for Dogs: "The dogs he captures in these pages are, by turns, soulful, expressive, and winsome-- and all of them are stunning." --Entertainment Weekly "This book will appeal to all ages. I know this because it was lying around our house on Thanksgiving Day and everyone wanted a look at it -- from college-age to senior citizen. They all oohed and aahed. If you''re a dog lover, or even a dog liker, it''s a keeper." --The Christian Science Monitor "Featuring profiles of dozens of canines, Dogs is a divine collection of images that spotlights the endearing characteristics of different pooches, elevating them to divine status. Whether it''s a troubled-looking Bloodhound or a demure Dalmatian, Flach''s subjects establish a direct connection with the viewer, dog-lover or otherwise." --Flavorwire.com
