Books about James Herriot

James Herriot: The Life Of A Country Vet (1997) by Graham Lord

James Herriot recommends

The Apple Tree Saga (1977) (Apple Tree Saga) Mary E Pearce "Sheer country magic."	They Must Have Seen Me Coming (1978) Louise Brindley "This is a funny book, a warm and exciting book about ordinary people - the kind who exist in every town - old folk, who are so easily ignored and whose problems are submerged in the rush of life... touching and vastly entertaining."	Nop's Trials (1984) Donald McCaig "Poignant, authentic, beautiful... gripping as a thriller... Jack London's books made me cry as a boy and this nearly did the same to me now."
A Countryman's Lot (1991) (Tales from the Dales) Max Hardcastle "A happy, satisfying and very funny book."
