Publisher's Summary

Now firmly ensconced in the sleepy Yorkshire village of Darrowby, recently qualified vet James Herriot has acclimatised to life with his unpredictable colleagues, brothers Siegfried and Tristan Farnon. But veterinary practice in the 1930s was never going to be easy, and there are challenges on the horizon, from persuading his clients to let him use his 'modern' equipment, to becoming an uncle (to a pig called Nugent). Throw in his first encounters with Helen, the beautiful daughter of a local farmer, and this year looks to be as eventful as the last....

    "Great characters!"

    As a life-long James Herriot fan, I am familiar with the stories, the anecdotes, the ebb and flow of life in this Yorkshire community but I am very pleased with the way that Christopher Timothy brings each of the characters to life!

    "A comfortable, uncomplicated, clean listen"

    You can't beat a bit of James Herriott when you need a book you don't need to put any effort into. Nice simple humour and perfect to dip in and dip out of. Loved it.

    "Disappointing."

    I am very familiar with the Herriot books and was a little disappointed in Christopher Timothy's slightly monotonous narration.
