About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Dogs and Men by Mary Ansell. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. A memoir from Mary Ansell (the actress, not the one who killed her sister) sharing the stories of her beloved dogs, Porthos, Luath, Billy, and Sammy, in all their heart-warming, entertaining, and frustrating furry glory. Ansell was married for a time to J.M. Barrie, and you'll be delighted to learn that Luath, the Newfoundland, was the living inspiration of "Nana" in Barrie's most famous work, Peter Pan. There once was an actress named Mary, Of marriage and men she was wary, When push came to shove, And in matters of love, She preferred her companions hairy! - Summary by Lynette Caulkins. Limerick by Lucy Bickley
