Product Description
The triumphant conclusion to the legendary series
With each book more engaging than the last, James Herriot once again brings us the magical beauty of Yorkshire through his uplifting experiences as a country veterinarian. These stories provide a grand finale to the wonderful books that began with All Creatures Great and Small and continued in All Things Bright and Beautiful and All Things Wise and Wonderful.
It is just after World War II, and James has returned from the Royal Air Force to do battle with the diseases and injuries that befall the farm animals and pets of Skeldale and the surrounding moors. Four-year-old Jimmy Herriot, Humphrey Cobb and his little beagle Myrtle, Norman the book-loving veterinary assistant, and many more new faces join old favorites among the green hills of Yorkshire, as James takes an unforgettable voyage to Russia on a freighter with 383 pedigreed sheep. Touching our hearts with laughter and wisdom, lifting our spirits with compassion and goodness, James Herriot never fails to delight.

This is an absolutely wonderful book and a must read for every animal lover. All this author's books are "keepers."
BUY all of his books! August 9, 2009

Just recently discovered this author even though the books are older. I am now collecting them all. I am really enjoying these stories. If you like animals and humorous stories these are wonderful, calming books.
Happiness and joy in your hands April 11, 2009

Herriot is an unequaled master. He opens the door to the world of veterinary medicine that enables us to walk through the beautiful English landscape and into piles of muck, mud, slush and into warm farmhouses of hard working men and women. We are able to share his love of all animals, his tenderness and understanding of those who call (most often at 2 or 3 in the morning) to hurry and check the swollen/scratched/itchy/whatever it is on the toe, nose, paw, side, tail of the dogs and cats that are the only companions of elderly men and women.
I could talk for hours and relate adventure and after adventure. Buy this book and ALL of the companion Herriot books. Have your children read them. Read them to your non-reading children. Share with your friends and family (but put your name in the book. Somehow ownership seems to change once another person gets their hands and eyes on your book.)
