Vet in a spin
Herriot, James2006
Book
Strapped into the cockpit of a Tiger Moth trainer, Herriot has swapped his wellingtons and breeches for sheepskin boots and a flying suit. But very soon the vet-turned-airman is grounded, and back to his old life in the Dales. James Herriot, strapped into the cockpit of a Tiger Moth trainer, feels rather out of place, but he hasn't found a new profession and it surely won't be long before the RAF come round to his point of view . . .From the author whose books inspired the BBC series All Creatures Great and Small, Vet in a Spin, James Herriot's sixth volume of unforgettable memoirs sees him dreaming of the day when he can rejoin his wife Helen, little son Jimmy, veterinary partner Siegfried, the eternal student Tristan - and all the old Darrowby cows, both two-legged and four.
