Vets Might Fly (All Creatures Great and Small #5)

the long version

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. This, his fifth volume of memoirs, relocates him to a grueling RAF training camp. Tired, sore, and missing his beloved Yorkshire, the one thing that keeps him going is his thoughts of home and Helen, his friends, and his veterinary practice. But back in the Dales there are still funny cases and sad cases; dirt, blood, and late nights; frantic farmers; and of course the inimitable Siegfried and Tristan. (Published in the US as part of the book titled *All Things Wise and Wonderful*.)
