About this product

Product Information

Told for the first time, National Geographic brings you the story of a stray dog who eventually became affectionately known as "Sergeant Stubby" the most famous war dog of World War I. Beloved award-winning author and library darling Ann Bausum brings her friendly writing style and in-depth research to her first-ever book for adults. Stubby's story begins in 1917 when America is about to enter the war. A stray dog befriends Private J. Robert "Bob" Conroy at the Connecticut National Guard camp at Yale University and the two become inseparable, eventually crossing an ocean and going to war together. What follows is an epic tale of how man's best friend becomes an invaluable soldier on the front lines and in the trenches, a decorated war hero and an inspiration to a country long after the troops returned home. For those who loved New York Times bestseller Rin Tin Tin comes the memorable story of Sergeant Stubby--World War I dog veteran, decorated war hero, American icon, and above all, man's best friend.

  • Loved This Book.

    As a Dog lover I loved this book. The bonus was the history of WW1. Very well written. Gave a copy to A friend who is also a Dog lover, plus her husband was career military and in WW2 and she was also a school teacher. She said its description of WW1 was better than you could find in any text book. The author described how she did her research in the back of the book. I didn't realize how much time and work authors have to go through to write a nonfiction book. Can't wait for the movie to come out next spring.

  • History and Sgt Stubby

    This year is the 100th year since the end of wwI, and a good time to honor those who gave so much for our freedom. Sergent Stubby is an interesting story, and gives insght about the time that WWI was fought.

  • Good read

    I'd heard the various stories of Stubby before, but finally there's a book which gives an accurate account of as much of the story as is known or can be reasonably construed.
