Thanks to James Herriot, the Dales have fame and popularity
worldwide. The Herriot books introduced a huge public to the
colourful life of a rural veterinary surgeon - an interest which
has endured for more than four decades.The Dales Vet is different.
It is a unique book celebrating author Neville Turner's passions
for the countryside, natural history, dales heritage, music-making,
and photography. Neville has marvelled at the world of nature since
he was a small boy. He spent over 30 years in rural veterinary
practice working on the eastern slopes of the Pennines and his
professional life gave him the opportunity to establish an intimacy
with the dales over the seasons. During this time he travelled over
a million miles in the Dales with a camera by his side. The Dales
Vet is a collection of literary sketches illustrated by beautiful
pictures from the author's own huge library. The subjects cover
life as a rural vet, but also include intimate views of farm
animals, hill farmers, wildlife rehabilitation, dales nature, dales
culture, and dales landscape in all its glory.This book will be
attractive to all country lovers, those with an interest in animals
and birds, botanists, farmers, photographers, and people with an
interest in our rural heritage.
