All Creatures Great and Small

Fresh out of Veterinary College, and shoulder-deep in an uncooperative cow, James Herriot’s first job is not panning out exactly as expected. To a Glaswegian like James, 1930s Yorkshire appears to offer an idyllic pocket of rural life in a rapidly changing world. But even life in the sleepy village of Darrowby has its challenges...

James is now married and has become a partner in the Darrowby practice. Life in Yorkshire is good, with the usual melange of farm animals, pets and owners demanding his attention.

Another vintage James Herriot offering with gripping anecdotes about delivering lambs, grumpy farmers, hypochondriac pet-owners, stroppy cows and blunt Yorkshire characters.
