A Thousand Hounds - Reviews

 

 

 

 


“A marvelous book…. A pictorial book this complete is usually far more expensive. At this price, it is a ‘don’t miss’ treasure.”
The Roanoke Times
USA


“If a picture is worth a thousand words, ‘A Thousand Hounds’ is worth a million, and most of them are ‘Awww.’ … In every language, dogs are love.”
Dog Fancy
USA


"Un très bel hommage à l'animal le plus populaire au monde."
www.monanimal.com
France


"These shots are fun, goofy, disturbing, awe-inspiring—you get it; there's a lot here."
Boston Globe
USA


"This is an incredible collection of canine art."
Boston Sunday Herald
USA


"...both a sobering sojourn in the city pound and a delicious daytrip to a topflight all-breed dog show. The best thing about this book is the unabashed beauty of its subjects."
National Post
Canada


"For 30 bucks you can get 2 CD's, or one mid-level video game, or a dozen Big Macs. For the same amount you could buy 'A Thousand Hounds' and take a mind trip like, I guarantee, you've never had. Yes, Raymond Merritt and Miles Barth have given the world another dog book. But 'A Thousand Hounds' is a just dog book like 'Hamlet' is just a revenge drama."
Magellan's Log
USA


"The title of this collection came from Manuel Alvarez Bravo, who told [editor] Raymond Merritt that 'If I could photograph a thousand hounds, I would die a happy man.' This volume beautifully attests to his sentiment."
The Bark
USA


"A book that will delight photography and dog lovers alike."
Dog & Kennel
USA


"Die New Yorker Raymond Merritt und Miles Barth, beide renommierte Kuratoren der internationalen Fotoszene, haben die schönsten und ungewöhnlichsten Hundefotos aus drei Jahrzehnten zusammengetragen."
Country
Germany


"...a design triumph. The biggest and the best of all the dog photo books out there."
Village Voice
New York


"Reader, cave canem. You are likely to be either bitten or smitten."
The New York Times
USA


"The best dog-picture book yet."
New York magazine
USA


"Dear Mr. Merritt and Mr. Barth: I wanted to thank you for creating your beautiful book, 'A Thousand Hounds.' I've seen many dog books in my time, and this is one of the best."
