About this listen
The fourth volume of memoirs from the author who inspired the BBC and Channel 5 series All Creatures Great and Small.
This audio edition is read by Nicholas Ralph, known for his role as James Herriot in the All Creatures Great and Small TV series.
Finally home from London after his wartime service in the RAF, James Herriot is settling back into life as a country vet. While the world has changed after the war, the blunt Yorkshire clients and menagerie of beasts with weird and wonderful ailments remain the same. But between his young son, Jimmy, trailing him around copying his every move, stubborn farmers refusing to try his ‘new-fangled’ treatments and a goat that has eaten 293 tomatoes, Darrowby is far from quiet. And with another baby on the way, life is about to get even more chaotic . . .
Since they were first published, James Herriot’s memoirs have sold millions of copies and entranced generations of animal lovers. Charming, funny and touching, The Lord God Made Them All is a heart-warming story of determination, love and companionship from one of Britain’s best-loved authors.

'I grew up reading James Herriot's books and I'm delighted that thirty years on, they are still every bit as charming, heartwarming and laugh-out-loud funny as they were then.' - Kate Humble

Outstanding
Loved this and the whole series so far. Nicholas Ralph is an outstanding narrator, his voices and accents are so good. His descriptions bring the books to life and I have laughed out loud many times whilst listening. Sorry to have come to the end, hope there will be more to look forward to.

I first read the series in /78/79 as a teenager and loved them. I'm enjoying the current TV series even with its massive changes/alterations.
the audiobooks are very good, Nicholas Ralph is a superb narrator and brings them to life. listen to them time and time again. thoroughly reccommended.
