They have served as messengers, scouts, guards, and even weapons. They have saved lives, comforted the wounded, and helped to win wars.

Ledgard's book tells the stories of some of these extraordinary animals and the people who loved them.

There is the story of Cher Ami, a carrier pigeon who delivered a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers during World War I. Cher Ami was shot through the breast and lost an eye, but she still managed to deliver her message.

There is the story of Wojtek, a bear who served with the Polish Army during World War II. Wojtek helped to carry supplies, build fortifications, and even fight in battle.

And there is the story of Chips, a dog who served with the British Army during the Falklands War. Chips helped to detect landmines and booby-traps, and he even saved the life of a British soldier.

These are just a few of the many stories that Ledgard tells in her book. These are stories of courage, loyalty, and love.

They are stories that will inspire you and make you proud to be human.
