The Wonderful World of James Herriot excerpts the best of his stories to shape the larger tale of his life, his family, and his world, illustrated with evocative drawings and family photographs, including a special introduction written by his two children Rosie Page and Jim Wight. With astute observations and boundless humor, Herriot captures the spirit of the Yorkshire Dales and of rural communities on the cusp of change, before tractors and machines had taken over and modern medicines and antibiotics transformed veterinary work. Herriot's unforgettable portraits of farm animals and the people he served as a country veterinarian are moving, dramatic, warm, touching, and profound. This beautiful book is the perfect gift for Herriot readers of all ages"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Herriot, James. 650 0 Veterinarians|zEngland|zYorkshire|vBiography. 650 0 Veterinary medicine|zEngland|zYorkshire. 650 0 Human-animal relationships|zEngland|zYorkshire. 651 0 Yorkshire (England)|xSocial life and customs|y20th century. 651 0 Thirsk (England)|vBiography. 700 1 Wight, Jim,|d1943-|ewriter of introduction. 700 1 Page, Rosie,|d1947-|ewriter of introduction.
