Book "If Only They Could Talk" by James Herriot"
Synopsis When the newly qualified vet, James Herriot, arrives in the small Yorkshire village of Darrowby, he has no idea of the new friends he will meet or adventures that lie ahead. From the author whose books inspired the BBC series All Creatures Great and Small, this first volume of unforgettable memoirs chronicles James Herriot's first years as a country vet, with the signature storytelling magic that has made him a favourite the world over.

Just started this book and was laughing and crying in the first chapter. From the 1st paragraph this book has got me in. Maybe it is because I am a farm girl and can relate - cause been there done that, and 2 good friends are vets.

I've bought it online, it hasn't arrived here yet.
I loved it. Really easy reading.Some laughs, some cries. No plots etc to have to concentrate on. Just a wonderful book that tells you of a vets life. I am now going to read the rest of them. I believe they made a TV series out of the books called "All Creatures Great and Small".
Was lucky enough to find in a second hand book store all of the novels. Read them all. What a joy. So realistic, so factual, so down to earth. The joy and sorrow of owning animals. The heartaches and pleasures of being a vet. Just amazing.
