Donkey, the Mystique of Equus Asinus
by Michael Tobias and Jane Morrison
Of those illustrations and photos, 40 are copies of museum pieces
located in such places as the J Paul Getty Museum in Los Angles, CA
and the Lovre in Paris, France. This book provides the reader with
an extensive collection of these photographs. One favorite is a
drawing by Mark Twain in 1906 entitled ‘A Tramp Abroad’. The entire
book is full of quotes and passages about donkeys. The authors did
an amazing job of researching the book. Both authors had an
encounter with donkeys during their childhood, starting them on a
path to a lifelong love of the donkey. Anyone who shares this love
should own this book; it is a sweet addition to any library.
