I read this book when I was in high school, and it changed the way I interact with animals, and my outlook on life. I couldn't find it until I looked for it on .com. 25 years later, it still inspires me the way it did then. Now I'm excited to share it with everyone I meet. It teaches the unconditional love of animals for the humans who are willing to share their lives with them and learn from them. Everyone should read Letters to Strongheart.

I bought this book many years ago and it has been my very favorite book ever since. I love animals. I believe all sentient life is interrelated and the feeling of love and belonging is the greatest emotion possible. I would like more information about the author. I also have Kinship with All Life.

If you love animals, most of all pets this is a must read book as it reveals insight about how to communicateand understand your pets with respect and love. Boone's timeless book was published in the late 1930's and because of his British background his use of words may seem 'dated' to some readers. I found this to be a wonderful book. I recommend it.

I read every pet-loss book I could find when my beloved dog, an 11-year cancer survivor on all natural remedies, died in my arms at the age of 19.This was one of the very few books that truly spoke to the depth of my pain and provided solace. It gave me a way to be with my grief without plunging me face first into it.This is Boone's timeless, poetic, and insightful journal, which documents his inner journey while outwardly, he travels and observes the world after the passing of his beloved dog, Strongheart. It left me feeling comforted, introspective, and no longer so alone. A beautiful and wise book, one I have given as a gift to many.

Boone lived - and no doubt still lives - what he believes. He believes what he learned from a receptive and appreciative relationship with a very special dog. Because of reading Boone, I've greatly enhanced my relationships with All Life and it has become easy (most of the time) to love and appreciate life for itself - no matter what shape it comes in. But it is still somewhat difficult to fully love centipedes, for example. Not only are they fast-moving crawly beings whom we cannot keep out, but they are moderately toxic to our cats - all of whom are hunters. So the cats invariably catch the centipedes and get bitten in the act of dispatching them to centipede heaven. Our flies stay out of trouble by staying just out of reach, although a huge moth lost a battle a couple of days ago! I've had communications from many of my animals who have passed out of physical form but who are definitely still alive, as is Strongheart. In my list of Strongheart's (and Boone's) qualities are those that have taught me to hear more clearly what my animal and human friends are sharing with me from the "other" side. My life has been - and is still being - greatly enriched.

Reaching beyond time and space I wish to thank you my dear friend J. Allen Boone for all your insightful and inspired thoughts and ideas. You have helped strengthen my belief that Love cannot die - that we are united forever in Love. And we are only temporarily separated by time and space.I'll be seein' you

I didn't get as much from this one but love all his books!LOVE OF ANIMALS, RESPECT OF LIFEAmazing stories with animals and showing how EVERYTHING has a presence, a spirit--and we CAN communicate.I WISH THESE WERE REQUIRED READING IN SCHOOL.KIDS WOULD LEARN EARLY ON TO RESPECT LIFE.Classic works I will re-read many times.
