About This Vintage 1966 Edition

"Greyfriars Bobby" by Eleanor Atkinson is a classic tale of loyalty and friendship, beautifully captured in this 1966 reprint by Penguin Books. Originally published in America by Harpers in 1940, and in Great Britain by Hamish Hamilton in 1949, this edition was printed in Great Britain by Cox & Wyman Ltd. The story, set in Edinburgh, follows the heartwarming journey of a devoted Skye Terrier named Bobby.
