151 S. mit sehr zahlr. sw. und auch farbigen Abb. Zustand: Mit st�rkeren Gebrauchsspuren. Papier alters- und qualit�tsbedingt gebr�unt. SU mit Randl�suren und Klebefilmverst�rkung am oberen Rand. - Printed in Czechoslowakia. - "Today, as 4,000 years ago, cats make headline news. Then they wore jewellery and received ceremonial parades; nowadays it is championship rosettes and newspaper publicity. This book, with its lively and informative text, and over 300 selected illustrations in black and white and full colour, presents the cat in a delightfully wide variety of moods and guises. Fact & Figures: Did you know that the ancient Egyptians prized their cats above all other household beiongings, and went into mourning when they died? or, by contrast, that in the Middle Ages cats were massacred in their thousands, especially on religious festivals? Fantasy & Folklore: The Chinese believed that they could teil the time by gazing into a cat's eyes; Laplanders consult the family cat before setting out on a journey; and in Europe, walling up a cat in a new house was believed to guarantee good fortune for the occupants. Fads & Fancies: There are cats who are allergic to soap and water, and those who enjoy an early morning dip. Some like icecream and rock and roll, others prefer asparagus, Beethoven and Brahms. - They are all here. Lovers of cats will revel in this book, which pays sincere though not over-solemn tribute to those most versatile and entertaining of domestic pets".
