Which made her wonder: How had the breed-beloved by Teddy Roosevelt and Helen Keller-come to be known as a brutal fighter? Dickeys search for answers takes her from nineteenth-century New York dogfighting pits to early twentieth-century movie sets, from the battlefields of Gettysburg to struggling urban neighborhoods. In this illuminating story of how a popular breed became demonized--and what role humans have played in the transformation--Dickey offers us an insightful view of Americans' relationship with their dogs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51536162816288,"sku":"NEW0345803116","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71TpNjwqlkL.jpg?v=1777403102","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/pit-bull-the-battle-over-an-american-icon-0345803116","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
