TALK

The daily life of a young veterinary surgeon starting hiscareer among the farmers of Yorkshire in 1937.

This doctor looks with a critical eye at his animal patients, at the humans who tend them, and at himself. And wonders what the animals would think of it all, if only they could talk.

Here are fifteen of his best-known chapters: The Day the Pigs Escaped to Town – The Shooting of the Racehorse – Cinderella in the Pigsty – and a dozen more.

The illustrator Per Illum has carefully researched his pictures of old Yorkshire.

A successful television series has been based on James Herriot’s books.
