Description: The Doberman Pinscher as Soldier and Civilian a Pictorial History This 220-page softbound, self-published book is a compilation of over 450 color and black/white photographs that have been gathered from many collections around the world. Since a picture truly is worth a thousand words, these images help to reveal the story of these wonderful dogs as both Soldiers and Civilians. The book begins with the development and distribution of the Doberman to help define how young the breed actually is, and how quickly it became such a large part of so many people’s lives, during times of peace and war. Many of the more striking photographs of World War I and World War II were not of technological marvels but of humans and their dogs caught up in the turmoil of war, regardless of uniform or nationality. This book is a glimpse into the lives of these soldiers and civilians, both human and canine, at rest, at play, at work and in battle. The intent of this book is not, of course, to glorify war but to illustrate the devotion, sacrifices and contributions Dobermans have made in helping save the lives of their soldier companions. The book uncovers the reason why Dobermans were not used as Military Working Dogs after WWII and tells the life story of Butch, as a civilian and WWII War Hero who served on Iwo Jima.
