OF CATS AND MEN
PROFILES OF HISTORY'S GREAT CAT-LOVING ARTISTS, WRITERS, THINKERS, AND STATESMEN
KALDA, SAM
A stylish, illustrated gift book profiling notable cat-loving men throughout history.
Some of historys greatest men have been cat lovers, and their cats have contributed to their genius and legacy: the static charge from a cats fur sparked young Nikola Teslas interest in electricity; Sir Isaac Newton is said to have invited the first cat flap; visitors to Ernest Hemingway and Winston Churchills homes still encounter the descendants of their beloved cats; William S. Burroughs and Andy Warhol both wrote books inspired by their feline friends.
Stylishly illustrated and full of charming, witty profiles and quotes from historys most notable cat men, Of Cats and Men pays tribute to thirty luminaries and visionaries who have one thing in common: a pure and enduring love of cats.
