James Herriot's final work and last in his beloved series of animal stories
This fifth and final of James Herriot's heartwarming story collections brings back familiar friends (including old favorites such as Tricki Woo) and introduces new ones, including Herriot's children Rosie and Jimmy and the marvelously eccentric vet Calum Buchanan.
As James grows older, he finds that change comes even to his beloved Yorkshire---but not necessarily bad, as he watches his own two children come to share and participate in his deep love of the animal world. Herriot's last memoir, Every Living Thing is a truly heartwarming read, burstingly full of his deep joy in life, sense of humor, and appreciation of the world around him.
James Herriot
吉米•哈利(1916—1995)
原名James Alfred Wight
获过大英帝国勋章,写过荣登《纽约时报》榜首的系列畅销书。
却坚持在乡间从事兽医工作50余年。
写过的书拍成了电影电视剧,塑造的人物成了读者饭桌上的谈资,
而他自己成了人们口中永恒的传奇。
谦卑、温和、乐观、悲悯。
一个把心低到尘土,却始终在仰望星空的人。
