Book Review of The Story of Edgar Sawtelle

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle

This book is beautifully written and interesting, but a very slow read. The words and use of them is impressive and delightful, but the subject matter and events did not inspire a great desire to continue reading it. I was interested in the dog breeding and training because of a grandfather who had done this, so some familiarity existed for me. But for the average reader I do not feel the subject matter would be at all interesting.
