That an institution as august as Te Papa can devote time and funds to assembling a miscellany of canine portraits from colonial times is testament to the museum’s easily overlooked sense of fun. This is a completely unnecessary book, and all the more enjoyable for that. As well as the portraits, a portion of the pooches earn mini-biographies, such as Erebus, the matchmaking Samoyed who was born in the Antarctic on Shackleton’s South Pole expedition. Party member Ernest Joyce presented Erebus to one Beatrice Curlett of Christchurch. Romance ensued."" - Paul Little, North & South, March 2022."
