Heroes and Greathearts and Their Animal Friends is a book written by John T. Dale and published in 1908. The book is a collection of stories about famous historical figures and their relationships with animals. The stories are divided into two sections: heroes and greathearts. The heroes section includes stories about figures such as Alexander the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, and George Washington. The greathearts section includes stories about figures such as St. Francis of Assisi, Florence Nightingale, and Abraham Lincoln. Each story describes the relationship between the historical figure and their animal friend. For example, the story about St. Francis of Assisi tells of his love for all creatures great and small, including birds, wolves, and even a wild rabbit who would sit in his lap during prayer. The story about Abraham Lincoln tells of his love for his horse, Old Bob, who he would ride to the battlefield during the Civil War.The book is written in a style that is accessible to both children and adults. It is illustrated with black and white drawings that accompany each story. The book is a celebration of the bond between humans and animals and the ways in which animals have played a role in the lives of great historical figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
