About all creatures - beautiful and reasonable. Harriot J.

Funny and touching stories about animals of the English writer and veterinarian James Harriot are translated into dozens of languages. His good -natured humor, a well -aimed observation and the brilliant gift of the narrator have been winning more and more new readers for several decades, not ceasing to surprise how the stories from the practice of the “cow doctor” can be interesting. And how far away the rural veterinarian is far from the routine, there is no need to say! Try, for example, to reason with a furious bull, or to move a hidden pig from the place, or turn into an operating stall, not forgetting about sharp teeth and hooves of your four -legged patients. The present edition presents the book of Harriot “On all creatures - beautiful and reasonable” (1974), in which, as in the collection “On all creatures - large and small”, the author reverses the first year of his veterinary practice in Darrow, a fictional town , behind which the features of Tirsk appear, where the world famous museum of James Harriot is now located.
