**This program is read by Nicholas Ralph, star of the PBS Masterpiece series** "Nicholas Ralph's readings of Herriot's stories are as comforting an experience as the show, and even more immersive." — The Houston Chronicle A tie-in to the PBS Masterpiece series and Christmas special, available on streaming and home video. The second volume in the multimillion copy bestselling series. Millions of readers and listeners have delighted in the wonderful storytelling and everyday miracles of James Herriot in the fifty years since his animal stories were first introduced to the world. All Things Bright and Beautiful is the beloved sequel to Herriot's first collection, All Creatures Great and Small , and picks up as Herriot, now newly married, journeys among the remote hillside farms and valley towns of the Yorkshire Dales, caring for their inhabitants—both two- and four-legged. Throughout, Herriot's deep compassion, humor, and love of life shine as we laugh, cry, and delight in the portraits of his many varied animal patients and their equally varied owners.
