The Story of Jules Verne

The Story of Jules Verne: A Watch Pocket Dog by Wayne Caldwell Simmons. Hard Cover. 85 pages.

From back cover:

The Story of Jules Verne is a story for dog lovers. It is a true story: the experiences, the characters, even the rocky start of a very special relationship. The story, with paintings and illustrations by the author, recounts a young man's journey with his hunting dog over a ten-year span.

In many ways, the book is a compilation of closely related short stories, written in sequence, about an ordinary guy and his "once in a lifetime" hunting dog - the dog being the thread that binds throughout.
