Here are Winston Churchill's gingertom, who attended cabinet meetings;Teddy Roosevelt's cat, Slippers, whocame to dinner; and even the author'sown George II, who was bitten by amouse and adopted by a blue jay. BarbaraHolland's warm, vivid speculations oncats' lives and times--on their social, psychic, and mythological legacy, and theirimpenetrable mysteries--will give readersa delightful cat's-eye view of the world.
