All Creatures Great and Small

The New York Times–bestseller from a Yorkshire veterinarian whose beloved books have sold over eighty million copies worldwide. The basis for the classic BBC and PBS Masterpiece series. In the rolling dales of Yorkshire, a simple, rural region of northern England, a young veterinarian from Sunderland joins a new practice. A stranger in a strange land, he must quickly learn the odd dialect and humorous ways of the locals, master outdated equipment, and do his best to mend, treat, and heal pets and livestock alike. This witty and heartwarming collection, based on the author's own experiences, became an international success, spawning sequels and winning over animal lovers everywhere. Perhaps better than any other writer, James Herriot reveals the ties that bind us to the creatures in our lives. James Herriot is a "wise and wonderful writer." —TheBoston Globe
