Greyfriars Bobby

Meer over het boek

No visitor to Edinburgh will miss the monument to Scotlands most famous dog, the little Skye terrier Greyfriars Bobby. This amazing dog, the most faithful in the world, kept vigil at his masters grave for fourteen long years, before expiring in 1872. Many childrens books, and three successful films, have been inspired by the affecting story of this little dog, said to be the most inspiring tale of love and loyalty ever heard. Every summer, Bobbys statue is surrounded by tourists from all over the world, some of whom weep profusely when they hear dogs pathetic story.
