I enjoyed seeing pictures of the places that feature so prominently in Herriot's books, but his writing just wasn't as enjoyable in this one. ( )

A short tour through the actual countryside the beloved vet traveled with some explanations on how he changed things for his stories. Pictures are included & not bad. It is beautiful countryside. ( )

I love the way James Herriot makes you feel as if you are there with him seeing things and hearing the people you meet along the way. ( )

A lovely book to read. Lots of beautiful photos of Yorkshire. It makes me wish I could travel all over that area. Great to see photos of what I've read about in his stories. ( )

Epigraph
Dedication
To my grandchildren, Emma and Nicholas, in the hope that they will discover Yorkshire for themselves
First words
I suppose you could say that the part of England I have come to think of as my Yorkshire starts in the Pennines in the west, and runs east across the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors to the enchanting villages and towns on the coast of the North Sea.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0312439717, Paperback)

Here is James Herriot's best-selling personal tour through the beautiful, almost magical land of All Creatures Great and Small and his new volume of memoirs, Every Living Thing. The gorgeous northern English countryside, depicted so memorably in James Herriot's internationally adored books, jumps to life here in more than two hundred full-color photographs that reveal the dales, the snowy hills, the becks and towns and farms in all their glory. Accompanying all this is a warmhearted text by the beloved veterinarian himself, who leads you through the countryside that he has made his own. And as you enjoy this book, he will make it yours as well.
