The beloved New York Times bestsellers that inspired the classic BBC and PBS Masterpiece series—from a Yorkshire veterinarian and a "wise and wonderful writer" (The Boston Globe).
Perhaps better than any other writer, James Herriot reveals the ties that bind us to the natural world. Collected here are three of his masterpieces—All Creatures Great and Small, All Things Bright and Beautiful, and All Things Wise and Wonderful—which have been winning over animal lovers everywhere for almost fifty years. From his night visits to drafty barns during freezing northern England winters, to the beautiful vitality of rural life in the summertime, to the colorful menagerie of animals—and their owners—that pass through his office, Herriot vividly evokes the daily challenges and joys that come with being a veterinarian.
James Herriot's books have connected with readers and animal lovers everywhere, selling over 80 million copies worldwide. Witty and heartwarming, this collection of whimsical, dramatic, and touching anecdotes reveals the ties that bind us to the animals in our lives. This edition features an introduction from the author's son and bonus archival photos.
