George Herbert Powell (1856–1924)

Here's another which I will warrant you never heard of. It is Powell's " Animal Episodes." No, it is not a collection of
dog-and-cat anecdotes, but it is a series of very singularly told stories which deal with the animal side of the human, and which you will feel have an entirely new flavour if you have a discriminating palate. The book came out ten years ago, and is utterly unknown." --Through the Magic Door, p. 244
