George King was a wonderful, generous, unassuming man and I always enjoyed talking with him.
I rate his "That's Ruff" among the true classics in my library - right up there with titles by Burt Spiller, H.P. Sheldon, G.B. Evans, W.H. Foster, Nash Buckingham, Corey Ford, Frank Woolner, Gene Hill and a small handfull of others.

Not because I think they're better than the other breeds,

George King, "That's Ruff", 2010 - a timeless classic.
