About the Author James Herriot grew up in Glasgow and qualified as a veterinary surgeon at Glasgow Veterinary College.

He is married with a son who is also a veterinary surgeon and a daughter who is a doctor.
Features & Highlights
- With two years experience behind him, James Herriot still feels privileged working on the beautiful Yorkshire moors as assistant vet at the Darrowby practice. Time to meet yet more unwilling patients and a rich cast of supporting owners. Full of hilarious tales of his unpredictable boss Siegfreid Farnon, his charming student brother Tristan, the joys of spring lambing, a vicious cat called Boris and James' jinxed courtship of the lovely Helen, this third volume of memoirs is sure to delight hardened fans and new readers of James Herriot titles alike. 'He can tell a good story against himself, and his pleasure in the beauty of the countryside in which he works is infectious.' - "Daily Telegraph". 'Full of warmth, wisdom and wit.' - "The Field". 'It is a pleasure to be in James Herriot's company.' - "Observer".
