Twenty years ago, St. Martin's Press published a volume of memoirs by an unknown Scottish veterinarian named James Herriot. Its title was "All Creatures Great and Small." Within a year, the book had become recognized as a masterpiece. In the two decades that have followed, James Herriot has become one of the most universally loved authors of our time. Now, as we celebrate the publication of "Every Living Thing"-- the country vet's fifth book of memoirs-- St. Martin's is proud to reissue the book that started it all. Its pages, now as then, are full of humor, warmth, pathos, drama, and James Herriot's unique, richly justified love of life. His journeys across the Yorkshire dales, his encounters with humans and dogs, cows and kittens are illumined by his infinite fascination and affection, and rendered with all the infectious joy of a born storyteller. As one reviewer wrote," If you ever loved a friend, human or otherwise, this is the book for you."

Wonderful read
I loved this series so much I purchased a set for my cousin.
Some of the stories are sad and some are hysterically funny but, if you love animals, you will love this book.

Love these books!
We love all the James Herriot books and we were delighted to be able to purchase them in hardcover and plan to pass them on to our children and grandchildren. Anyone who loves animals, will love these books.
