The touching and funny animal stories of English writer and the world's most famous veterinarian James Herriot have been translated into dozens of languages. His gentle humor and brilliant storytelling gift have been captivating new readers for decades. Once, James Herriot, with a veterinary degree and dreams of healing animals, set off for the English countryside. However, his dreams of a snow-white coat and sterile operating rooms collapsed overnight: he had to work in rubber boots, splashing through mud and manure. But along with this, the pristine beauty of Yorkshire, its majestic hills and heather moors, entered Herriot's life. And Herriot's main dream finally came true. Alongside mighty farm animals – horses and cows, – dogs were also among his patients, of course. This book is dedicated to man's most devoted friends and faithful companions.
