Brief description: J. Allen Boone (February 17, 1882 - June 17, 1965) was an American author best known for his 1954 classic Kinship With All Life, one of several books he wrote in the 1940s and 1950s exploring nonverbal communication with animals. In Kinship With All Life, Boone recounts his friendship with Strongheart, the film-star German Shepherd, who he credits with teaching him how to achieve deeper bonds through extrasensory perception -- a "silent language" Boone believed anyone could learn.
