The English-born American author Hugh Lofting was the creator of the beloved children's character of Doctor Dolittle, the eccentric, yet genial physician that can talk to the animals. The genesis of the series appeared in illustrated letters sent by Lofting to his children, while he was undergoing the horrors of the trenches in World War I, when news was 'too horrible' to send. The Dolittle books are celebrated for their charming wit and the humorous treatment of the doctor's bachelor household in Puddleby-on-the-Marsh. However, Lofting's works provide a recurring message of pacifism and censure of warmongering, which is most evident in Lofting's anti-war poem 'Victory for the Slain'. For the first time in publishing history, this edition presents Lofting's complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts and concise introductions. (Version 1)
