Description: Another excellent Large Hardcover in Very Good condition, The Best of James Herriot: Favorite Memories of a Country Vet, was written in 1983 by St. Martin's Press and The Reader's Digest Association, Inc. It's considered a timeless piece of non-fiction literature. Please read all Item specifics along with some tidbits that I have added. *James Herriot's own selection from his original books, with additional material, by Reader's Digest Editors (List of the selected books found on Photo 5) *James Herriot facsimile signature found on photo 8 (pages 7 & 8 go together, and signature is seen on photo 8) * Provided several photos on book's visual sections, Table of Contents, a 10" x 5" Map of the North Yorkshire, and a sample of photos and line drawings. Book's SynopsisThe Best of James Herriot is one of the most extraordinary volumes ever devoted to the work and world of a contemporary writer. Within its covers are unforgettable episodes from the remarkable series of memoirs that began with All Creatures Great and Small -"the ones my family and I have laughed at over the years and the ones my readers have said they most enjoyed," as Herriot, himself, put it. Yet the book is far more than a simple anthology: Its gorgeous pages also include hundreds of line drawings and color photographs, capturing Herriot's Yorkshire in a worthy complement to the writer's words. The1991 publication of Every Living Thing, rendered the original edition of this book incomplete. This fall will mark the publication of the complete, definitive edition with the addition of five of his best, more recent stories, as well as new art. Once again, The Best of James Herriot becomes the quintessential Herriot volume-one of those invaluable books that will be loved as much in decades to come as it is today.
