À propos de cet audio

The fourth volume of memoirs from the author who inspired the BBC and Channel 5 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 copying 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 heart-warming story of determination, love and companionship from one of Britain’s best-loved authors.

'I grew up reading James Herriot's books and I'm delighted that thirty years on, they are still every bit as charming, heartwarming and laugh-out-loud funny as they were then' - Kate Humble

Ce que les critiques en disent

I grew up reading James Herriot's books and I'm delighted that thirty years on, they are still every bit as charming, heartwarming and laugh-out-loud funny as they were then (Kate Humble)
Herriot’s enchanting tales of life in the Dales are deservedly classics. Full of extraordinary characters, animal and human, the books never fail to delight (Amanda Owen, bestselling author of The Yorkshire Shepherdess)
The attraction of Herriot’s ever popular memoirs of a country vet . . . is their alternating highs and lows, humour and pathos, and gripping anecdotes about delivering lambs, grumpy farmers, hypochondriac pet-owners, stroppy cows and blunt Yorkshire characters. And, of course, there’s a powerful nostalgia element in these stories about our green and pleasant land in the day before the ravages of ribbon development

Read beautifully by the narrator, who manages to capture the humour, tenderness and idiosyncrasies of the characters perfectly.

Another charming book

I can listen to these books over and over! Brilliant writing and wonderful stories that make me laugh and cry. Chriatopher Timothy's performance is also wonderful, he really captures and conveys all the vibrant characters and spirit of James Harriot's stories.

Uplifting, touching and wonderful performance

I love the James Herriot books and the interesting, quirky and often funny characters in each one. The narrator is so perfect for the Herriot books!

Funny and charming

The only problem with this book was that it ended after 11 hours. Christopher Timothy gives an outstanding performance. His voice changes to emulate the different characters and keeps the story vibrant. Bravo!

Wonderfully Entertaining

This is book number four or five (I lost count but narrative is set in postwar era), it’s clear Herriot isn’t just a writer I like; he’s one of the voices I want to keep around forever. Every story feels like time well spent: warm, smart, funny, and so alive you can almost smell the hay and hear the cows.

Herriot in fine fettle!
