Customer Reviews

Great gift!

Got the entire collection for my husband to listen to on his commute to work. I'm almost sorry because I keep hearing the stories when he gets home every evening, but he's really enjoying them.

Excellent collection!

Great to hear the voice of the actor who played JH so well in the television series, also read his books so passionately: wonderful atmosphere.

James Herriot Collection

Years ago, after reading the books, I never missed an episode of the NPR sponsered TV program on Channel 6 in Sacramento, CA. In the early '90's, my son (USAF) and family were sent to England and my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to visit there and actually toured the Yorkshire dales and countryside. We were able to visit the real home of this wonderful veterinarian and the one used in the making of the television series. Listening to the audio version of the books has brought back vivid memories so real it sometimes brings tears of happiness to my eyes. This is one of my all time favorites and Christopher Timothy is ABSOLUTELY one of the best readers of all times. I have not yet started watching the DVD's but I know I will feel the same. Truly I cannot say enough good things about this collection.

I wish it would never end!

This CD collection is wonderful! It's easy to get submerged into the storyline of each tale. We've been listening to a couple of chapters during dinner each night & will be sad when we've finished them all! The stories are appropriate & interesting for animal lovers of all ages.

A GREAT STORYTELLER
