_The Kingdom of the Cat_ is the most complete cat encyclopedia I own. It's packed full of information: the history of cats, their biology, the cat in art & literature, myths and legends surrounding cats, different breeds, cats and religion, and more.....even contact information for cat-lover societies and magazines. The book is written with a thoroughness and energy that only a true cat lover could summon, and the photographs are absolutely divine. Any cat lover would do well to own a copy!
