Impossible Journeys

di Richard Sugg (Autore)

Mariner Books, 2027

Homeward Bound meets The Hidden Lives of Dogs in a poignant, gift-worthy collection of true canine odysseys of returning home. Over mountains, through deserts, across rivers. For days, months, even years. There are countless stories of dogs journeying home, leading jaw-dropping expeditions, one paw after the other, overcoming treacherous weather, injuries, all to return home to their person, tail-wagging ferociously. And yet how they do this is still a mystery to us. Impossible Journeys takes us deep into this mystery, each chapter a remarkable dog odyssey of canine homing. There’s Bobby the Wonder Dog, lost on a family vacation in Indiana, who walked 2,551 miles home to Oregon. There’s Railway Jack dog, hopping on and off trains in London. There’s Hector the terrier, who boarded a ship from Vancouver to join his beloved owner almost 5,000 miles away in Japan. Buoyed by research, science, and psychology, these richly detailed accounts transform our understanding of a dog’s capacity for intuition and instinct. Brimming with tales of adventure, wonder, and courage, and with lovely photographs of our world travelers, Impossible Journeys is a love letter to canine loyalty and connection. It’s a book as expansive and epic as the journeys themselves, and will forever change the way you look at your beloved companion.
