In this first volume of his memoirs, then-newly-qualified vet James Herriot arrives in the small Yorkshire village of Darrowby, and he has no idea what to expect. How will he get on with his new boss? The local farmers? And what will the animals think? This program is filled with hilarious and touching tales of the unpredictable Siegfried Farnon, his charming student brother Tristan, and Herriot's first encounters with a beautiful girl named Helen.

Wait! It Mightn't Be What You Think--

Not worth a credit

difficult!
Had a very difficult time finishing the book
the narrator made it hard to distinguish between the characters. The story was a bit hard to follow at times you couldn't tell if the main character was thinking back or in the present. I wouldn't use my credit if I had to do it again. Very sorry I did!!!

As a fan of sherlock, I was a bit hesitant to use my credit for the story. Not sorry that I did. In fact I enjoyed it so much I tried to make myself listen only at work to make the time of the story last longer. wish there was another one after this one!

Reviewed: 07-16-17
Words fail me to describe this wonderfully written book. I was completely pulled into story!! If I could give 10 stars for performance and story, I would!! The characters were true to life without over done. I cried , rejoiced, and cried some more with the characters. When will I find a book this great again?
Will listen again and again.
