One of BBC Television's most popular comedy drama series for many years, All Creatures Great And Small was based on the novels of James Herriot.

Starting in 1936 and ending some time in the early 1950s, the stories chronicle the lives of the vets in a small practice in the Yorkshire Dales.

All Creatures Great and Small includes many different stories, all told from essentially the same perspective, each chapter is about a different experience Herriot had in his time as a veterinarian.
