When Herriot is called out on a spring morning, it feels like vetting at its best - an easy, trouble-free case, a nice farmer and a docile patient. But within seconds of administering a new drug, the horse crashes to the ground in front of a shocked vet. James Herriot has captivated millions of readers and television viewers with tales of the triumphs, disasters, pride and sometimes heartache that filled his life as a vet in the Yorkshire Dales. Every Living Thing shines with the captivating storytelling that has made James Herriot a favourite the world over. Here is a book for all those who find laughter and joy in animals, and who know and understand the magic of wild places and beautiful countryside.
