1928. The Algonquin Round Table was an informal group of famous New York writers who lunched together at the Algonquin Hotel in the 1920s and '30s. The self-appointed leader of the group was Alexander Woollcott. A large, stout man, he was an author, critic and actor noted for his sharp, cruel wit. A very delightful book about three dogs. Contents: The Passing of Nicholas; The Story of Verdun Belle; and My Friend Egon. Very sweetly illustrated. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
