Product Information

James Herriot illuminated the rich and rewarding day-to-day life of a small-town veterinarian, taking hundreds of thousands of listeners on a journey with him across the dales. He introduces a cast of truly unforgettable characters: humans, dogs, horses, lambs--even parakeets--all of them revealed with the same infinite fascination, affection and insight that made James Herriot one of the most beloved authors of our time. These stories are made all the more special by the world-renowned voice of Dr. Herriot--Christopher Timothy, whose performance warmly and evocatively brings the stories to life.
