The Best of James Herriot  Favourite Memories of a Country Vet

First Edition 1982

Harcover

A beautifully illustrated collection of favorite stories from all four of James Herriot's volumes of memoirs. Full-color photography and fascinating marginal notes in a one-of-a-kind gift book.

The Best of James Herriot is one of the most extraordinary volumes ever devoted to the work and world of a contemporary writer. Within its covers are unforgettable episodes from the remarkable series of memoirs that began with All Creatures Great and Small-"the ones my family and I have laughed at over the years and the ones my readers have said they most enjoyed," as Herriot, himself, put it. Yet the book is far more than a simple anthology: Its gorgeous pages also include hundreds of line drawings and colour photographs, capturing Herriot's Yorkshire in a worthy complement to the writer's words.
