Beschreibung

<p><b>The second collection of memoirs from the author who inspired the BBC and Channel 5 series <i>All Creatures Great and Small.</i></b><br><br>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 . . .<br><br><b>Since they were first published, James Herriot's memoirs have sold millions of copies and entranced generations of animal lovers. Charming, funny and touching,<i> All Things Bright and Beautiful</i> is a heart-warming story of determination, love and companionship from one of Britain's best-loved authors.</b><br><br><b>'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</b><br><br><b>'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 <i>The Yorkshire Shepherdess</i></b><br><br><b>This omnibus edition comprises the majority of chapters from <i>Let Sleeping Vets Lie</i> and <i>Vets in Harness</i>.</b></p>
