Anyone who has ever been to the Yorkshire Dales, and anyone who has never been anywhere near them, will gain equal pleasure from these books by James Herriot which are simply a phenomenon. A testament to modesty and hard work. A delight to read; his natural writing skills are unbelievably self-taught and his ability to describe characters and scenes is just superb. Written in the 70s and 80s but set in the 30s 40s and 50s so they never date. I have the entire set of all his books and never tire of reading them as they transport me into a time and place - sheer escapism. Wonderful.
