About the Author

A native of Cheltenham, England, educated in Canada and France, Barbara Garnett-Wilson has lived in the United States since 1965.

The author s first book, The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel in North America, sold out quickly and is now considered a collectors item.

In 2007, Barbara Garnett-Wilson penned The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, in Fact and Fancy, which went on to win many awards, including the Maxwell Award for Best Breed Book of the Year (2007) as presented the Dog Writers Association of America.

Later that year, this book also won an IPPY Award, awarded for Excellence in Independent Publishing, by the Independent Publisher association.

Also written by Barbara, along with her husband Roy, is a third book, The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel: A Tribute in Art, which was nominated as Best Anthology of the Year by Dog Writers Association of America in 2007.

Mrs. Garnett-Wilson is a member of Book Publishers Northwest, Pacific Northwest Writers Association, National Association of Women Writers, and the Dog Writers Association of America.

Breeder, exhibitor, and breed-specialty judge, the author lives with her husband and their Cavaliers of all ages, on picturesque Hood Canal in Washington State. Her Laughing Cavalier Kennels has, for over thirty years, imported or produced some remarkable Cavaliers, most notably the first Cavalier to win Best of Breed and a Toy Group placement at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, as well as the first two English-champion Cavaliers to be shown in the United States.

In 2004, Dog Fancy magazine honored the author s Laughing Cavalier Kennels as one of its five Kennels of Distinction in America.
