"High in the Alps, you’ve lost your way: snow blind, thirsty and cold.
But what’s that bark? A rescue dog? And can it be? Has the St. Bernard
that’s come to your aid really brought you a flagon of brandy? Why not
have a sip?"
A popular myth can become so well established that it completely
eclipses the underlying reality. A fun story.
Via Muse.
