I really enjoyed this telling of stories from a country vet in mid 1900s
I absolutely loved listening to All Creatures Great and Small, and I could not wait to return to the series with All Things Wise and Wonderful. This is such a heartwarming, hilarious and heartfelt collection of interconnected autobiographical short stories. Even if this is not of your typical reading taste, I urge you to try it out :).
This tells of the few months between James Herriot marrying and then being called up to serve for World War Two. More hilarious stories about crazy and cute animals with strange personalities, as well as the quirky people James Herriot met through work, as well as those who he lived with. Such a great book.

The third of this series, as I have always imagined it. The narrative in this is more disjointed in chronology, or it is just more noticeable than in [b:All Creatures Great and Small: The Warm and Joyful Memoirs of the World's Most Beloved Animal Doctor|49127553|All Creatures Great and Small The Warm and Joyful Memoirs of the World's Most Beloved Animal Doctor (All Creatures Great and Small, 1)|James Herriot|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1603739947l/49127553._SY75_.jpg|69329306] or [b:All Things Bright and Beautiful|56073409|All Things Bright and Beautiful (All Creatures Great and Small)|James Herriot|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1606585372l/56073409._SX50_.jpg|2752234]. James Herriot (which I only just realized in a pen name) jumps between RAF pilot training and flashbacks to veterinary adventures and misadventures. It, like the others, is a gentle read, despite the occasionally sad outcomes, and Nicolas Ralph does an excellent reading. It definitely makes me want to get another dog or traipse around Yorkshire.
