From the sunlit dales of Yorkshire to the windswept farms of rural England, The Lord God Made Them All is a warm, irresistible memoir that chronicles the continued adventures of country veterinarian James Herriot — a man whose devotion to his animal patients and their often eccentric owners never wavers. In this fourth instalment of his beloved series, Herriot recounts his postwar return to practice, his travels abroad on livestock ships to Turkey and Russia, and the endless parade of creatures — great and small — that fill his days with equal measures of comedy and tenderness. James Herriot, the pen name of Alf Wight, writes with a rare combination of warmth, wit, and unaffected humanity that transforms the everyday trials of a rural vet into something approaching the universal. Illustrated with charming drawings by Larry, the book presents a portrait of a vanishing world — a pre-industrial British countryside populated by stubborn farmers, loyal dogs, and the occasional bewildering beast — that has enchanted millions of readers worldwide. Whether you are a long-time devotee of Herriot's world or discovering it for the first time, this volume will leave you wondering what waits beyond the next dry-stone wall.
