About This Item
Story and sketches. Heartwarming and historical story, written for ages 12 and up, of how a stray, gaunt, brown dog becomes attached to Field Artillery "D" Battery at Fort Bragg. Although just a "mutt", he howls like an Alaskan Husky and becomes their mascot. He is trained and accompanies them overseas to fight in the war. Named Chinook, he becomes a hero during WWII (1941-1945). It is beautifully Illustrated with the art work of the renown illustrator, Paul Brown. Handsome copy in very good condition. Pages are intact, and not marred by notes or highlighting. Spine is undamaged. Dust jacket has small pieces out of lower left corner of front cover and top of spine, but they do not mar cover images.
