The second collection of memoirs from the author who inspired the
BBC and Channel 5 series All Creatures Great and Small. Now settled
into the sleepy Yorkshire village of Darrowby, and married to Helen
the farmer's daughter, James Herriot thinks he's finally got
himself sorted. But life as a vet in the 1930s was never going to
be easy. Quite aside from his unpredictable colleagues, brothers
Siegfried and Tristan Farnon, he must contend with new-fangled
medical techniques, delivering calves after far too much home-made
wine, and a grudge-holding dog called Magnus who never forgets. And
then, with Britain on the verge of war, James faces a decision that
could separate him from Darrowby - and Helen - for ever . . . Since
they were first published, James Herriot's memoirs have sold
millions of copies and entranced generations of animal lovers.
Charming, funny and touching, All Things Bright and Beautiful is a
heart-warming story of determination, love and companionship from
one of Britain's best-loved authors. 'I grew up reading James
Herriot's books and I'm delighted that thirty years on, they are
still every bit as charming, heartwarming and laugh-out-loud funny
as they were then' - Kate Humble 'Herriot's enchanting tales of
life in the Dales are deservedly classics. Full of extraordinary
characters, animal and human, the books never fail to delight' -
Amanda Owen, bestselling author of The Yorkshire Shepherdess This
omnibus edition comprises the majority of chapters from Let
Sleeping Vets Lie and Vets in Harness.
