Description

Star of Channel 5’s tv series The Yorkshire Vet, Julian Norton has written a warm, evocative and frequently funny memoir of his life and the huge number of animals and people he has met along the best way. From his childhood love of animals, through his training and first steps within the profession and the pressures and challenges faced by vets, coping with unexpected exotic pets – and handling excitable humans too – Julian has seen all sides of the veterinary world and writes about it all with humour and affection. Just as happy calving a cow, treating a dehydrated chameleon or tending to the overgrown teeth of a rabbit, his passion for his work shines through on each and every page, as does his love for Yorkshire. Published 100 years after the birth of James Herriott, and with a foreword by Herriott’s son Jim Wight, Julian’s story is every so often sad, frequently funny and at all times warm and compassionate, bringing to life the world of the working vet and the highs and lows he and his colleagues face each day.
