Search - The Lord God Made Them All

Another James Herriot... light but fun reading. This one was mostly new to me, and I enjoyed it. I find these books uplifting and warm without being too sweet. Others, I know, feel differently, but I like them.

This one includes a few stories from trips Herriot took after the war. These glimpses of life beyond the Yorkshire dales were just as interesting to me as the animal stories for which he was justly famous.

If you haven't read this series and are in the mood for something pleasant without being challenging, they are recommended.

This is the last of the series of James Herriot books. It is the tales of a rural veterinarian (nothing religious, despite the title) and a very sweet set of memoirs from a man who cared very much about both people and animals.
