James Harriot writes interesting and funny tales about his life as a vet. The reader, Christopher Timothy, played James Harriot on the series and is perfect for the role as the reader.

I ordered the audio version, which I really enjoyed listening to, especially with British (Yorkshire) accent of the actor. I have always enjoyed the James Herriot books, except for his free use of profanity.
Otherwise, it was very enjoyable listening.

If you like animals and enjoy humorous character portrayals, the writing of James Herriot is for you. The audio versions of The Lord God Made Them All these books are read by the actor who played James Herriot in the BBC TV Series "All Creatures Great and Small," Christopher Timothy. He makes the stories come alive. The stories themselves are family friendly, and most are sweet or funny. Only a few are sad. However, parents of young children be aware that expletives are common in these books and CDs. The writer has the characters talk in their accustomed way, and some characters use a bit of colorful language that parents may not want their children exposed to. Great stories. I have the entire collection in book and CD format too.

I only wish I could find other writers with short stories in this style. It was fun listening to the later years.

Great sequel to other Herriot books.Not quite as good as the first 3,but well worth it!Makes you sad you can never meet the man ,as he brings the dales alive.

I bought this for my husband. This is part of his favorite series. He really enjoyed it.

Make no mistake that I really like the book. That's why I bought the audiobook to go with my book. However, there's something wrong with the first track on the seventh CD. The reading is fragmented, and there is a squeaking sound once every moment. I can hardly understand what the reader just read. I hope Amazon can check into this matter before they sell another copy. It's really frustrating and sad everytime I listen to the CD because I really like the book.
