In the tradition of James Herriot, Bruce R. Coston's first book
is a warm, funny, and amazingly fulfilling celebration of the
wonderful world of animals as seen through the eyes of a small-town
veterinarian. The patients are an eclectic and surprising cast of
characters who display incredible bravery and nobility at times,
and unbelievable goofiness at other times. There's the dog that
resurrected itself from death. There's Daphne, the transvestite cat
who taught Bruce to be a cat person. And the owners are no less
engaging, ranging from the angelic to the squeamish, teaching Bruce
what it really means to be an animal doctor.
Readers will gain insight into the pathos and passion, the
mundane and incredible, the thigh-slapping humor and the crushing
sadness of a vet's life as he seeks to mend and restore people's
treasured companions. Written with great warmth, this book imparts
a deeper understanding of the pets that enrich our daily lives.
