The greatest expression of his talent for witty, observant explorations of what it means to 'live well', Henry James's The Ambassadors is edited with an introduction and notes by Adrian Poole in Penguin Classics.

Concerned that her son Chad may have become involved with a woman of dubious reputation, the formidable Mrs Newsome sends her 'ambassador' Strether from Massachusetts to Paris to extricate him. Strether's mission, however, is gradually undermined as he falls under the spell of the city and finds Chad refined rather than corrupted by its influence and that of his charming companion, Madame de Vionnet, and her daughter, Jeanne. As the summer wears on, Mrs Newsome concludes that she must send another envoy to confront the errant Chad - and a Strether whose view of the world has changed profoundly. One of the greatest of James's late works, The Ambassadors is a subtle and witty exploration of different responses to a European environment.

This edition of The Ambassadors includes a chronology, further reading, glossary, notes and an introduction discussing the novel in the context of James's other works on Americans in Europe, and the novel's portrayal of Paris.

Good but watch for the strings coming undone.
Color: Chew Pair, Size: Mini (Pack of 2)
Our 12 week old puppy has loved chewing on these bones. The only issue you'll need to look out for is the knots in the strings come undone very easily. I've had to retire them multiple times. This could be dangerous for dogs that like to eat strings!!

Not as I expected
Color: Chew Pair, Size: Mini (Pack of 2)
The chew pair is so small. It looks more like it is for a hamster than for a small dog of almost any size. What a waste of money!

Not worth it
Color: Chew Pair, Size: Mini (Pack of 2)
My 3 month old Bernedoodle chewed up the string in about 5 min. But she really likes the barbell part and it’s held up well. I’m not even going to give her the bone toy, after reading these reviews.
