Enjoy snuggling up and reading these two books: "Scout's Honor" (a signed copy) and "The Story of the Plott Hound!"
"Scout's Honor" is the award-winning debut novel from North Carolina novelist Dori Ann Dupré. Dori lives in Raleigh and is a new volunteer with Second Chance Pet Adoptions. The book is the 2016 Readers' Favorite International Book Award Bronze Medalist for Southern Fiction and was recently named a 2017 Eric Hoffer Award Finalist.
Recognized now as one of the premier hunting dogs in America, the Plott bear hound is unique among hunting dog breeds because it descends from Germanic stock rather than the traditional English foxhound. The breed's story began when its original breeder, Johannes Plott, and his brother Enoch left Germany in 1750 with their prized hunting dogs. This trip across the Atlantic began the two-hundred-year journey that would culminate in the North Carolina mountains with the development of what is now arguably the world's finest breed of hunting dog. This fascinating story of the Plott family and the Plott hound is a classic American tale of adventurers and underdogs--a story that Bob Plott, the great-great-great-grandson of Johannes Plott, is uniquely qualified to tell.
