* * * * Stars (Great!)

Follows James Herriot’s adventures as a newly qualified vet working under his slightly more experienced senior vet in the boonies of Yorkshire, where he meets a variety of memorable farmers and pet owners and falls in love with the people and the land. Follows his first couple of years working for the practice. Homey, hilarious and heart-warming! (Second reading of this – first time was in print, this time the audiobook, which I highly recommend.)
