A few months of married bliss, a lovers` nest in Darrowby and the wonders of home cooking are rudely interrupted for James Herriot by the Second World War. James Herriot`s fifth volume of memoirs relocates him to a training camp somewhere in England. And in between square pounding and digging for victory, he dreams of the people and livestock he left behind him.
`There are funny cases, sad cases, farm animals and pets, downright farmers, ladies of refinement, hard-bitten NCOs and of course, the immortal Siegfried and Tristan` TheSunday Times
`Another winner... as always hilariously funny` TheSunday Telegraph
`It is a pleasure to be in James Herriot`s company`Observer
