RATS by Max Halstock

£4.99

RATS is the story of a very special dog - a dog soldier - and those who lived and served with him in Northern Ireland. Awarded two medals for gallantry and wounded on a number of occasions, his fame spread and when he retired with a special army full-dress parade in his honour, Rats was a TV celebrity, receiving fan letters by the thousand.

This is a warm-hearted account of the affection and regard that grew between young soldiers in a number of regiments, and the little stray dog that loyally served with them through stress and danger.

‘A marvellous tribute to a wonderful dog soldier.’
Shropshire Star

‘A splendid little book’
Daily Express

‘One to touch the heart of any dog-lover.’
The Northern Echo

‘Full marks go to the author for his compassionate story.’
Royal Marines Journal

‘A fitting tribute to a grand little dog who can boast of not only saving some lives but of saving the sanity of all soldiers with whom he came in contact.’
Catholic Herald

‘A symbol of survival and friendship amidst the dangers and hostility of Crossmaglen.’
Kennel Gazette

‘A tale of warmth, love and extraordinary devotion.’
Coventry Evening Telegraph
