Summary

The fourth volume of memoirs from the author who inspired the BBC series All Creatures Great and Small.

Finally home from London after his wartime service in the RAF, James Herriot is settling back into life as a country vet. While the world has changed after the war, the blunt Yorkshire clients and menagerie of beasts with weird and wonderful ailments remain the same. But between his young son, Jimmy, trailing him around aping his every move, stubborn farmers refusing to try his 'new-fangled' treatments and a goat that has eaten 293 tomatoes, Darrowby is far from quiet. And with another baby on the way, life is about to get even more chaotic....

Since they were first published, James Herriot's memoirs have sold millions of copies and entranced generations of animal lovers. Charming, funny and touching, The Lord God Made Them All is a heartwarming story of determination, love and companionship from one of Britain's best-loved authors.

Love the Herriot books

Have listened to the previous books in this series and loved them all. This one did not disappoint. Lovely gentle stories of life as a country vet beautifully narrated. I can't wait to start the next one. Highly recommended

Very enjoyable

Lovely book,well read by Christopher Timothy, my only complaint is that the sound quality is poor in many places, words crackling or breaking down completely. Unusual for Audible!

Absolutely Beautiful

I can’t really put into words just how special these books by James Herriot are. His writing is truly beautiful and read by Christopher Timothy I don’t know how they could be any better. Outstanding.

Another super book to listen to

Loved listening to Christopher Timothy’s voice reading one of my favourite stories with such passion. His voices and the incidental music allow me to really picture the scene. I listen to about 25 mins every night to lull me to sleep, it is so relaxing to listen to.
