Going to the Dogs: Greyhound Racing, Animal Activism, and American Popular Culture
Angebote / Angebote:
In the 1970s sitcom The Odd Couple, Felix and Oscar argue over a racing greyhound that Oscar won in a bet. Animal lover Felix wants to keep the dog as a pet, gambling enthusiast Oscar wants to race it. This dilemma fairly reflects America's attitude toward greyhound racing. This book, the first cultural history of greyhound racing in America, charts the sport's meteoric rise - and equally meteoric decline - against the backdrop of changes in American culture during the last century.
