If Only They Could Talk

This classic book serves as the opening chapter of the author’s beloved collection of memoirs, which inspired the famous television series All Creatures Great and Small. It follows the humorous and touching experiences of a freshly qualified, young veterinarian who moves to a remote, rustic village in the 1930s Yorkshire countryside. As he struggles to adapt to rural life, he must win over the eccentric local farmers and learn how to treat an unpredictable variety of farm and domestic animals.
