Samenvatting:

A special Pan’s 70th anniversary edition of James Herriot's hilarious memoir of his veterinary adventures in Yorkshire.

70 years of timeless stories. One essential collection. Lesson number one: When taking a cow’s temperature the old-fashioned way, never let go of the thermometer . . . Settled in the sleepy Yorkshire village of Darrowby, recently qualified vet James Herriot has acclimatized to life with his unpredictable colleagues, brothers Siegfried and Tristan Farnon. But life as a vet in the 1930s was never going to be easy, and there are challenges on the horizon, from persuading his clients to let him use his `modern’ equipment, to becoming an uncle (to a pig called Nugent). Throw in his first encounters with Helen, the beautiful daughter of a local farmer, and this year looks to be as eventful as the last . . .
