Summary
Strapped into the cockpit of a Tiger Moth trainer, James Herriot has swapped his wellingtons and breeches for sheepskin boots and a baggy flying suit. But the vet-turned-airman is the sort of aircrew trainee to terrify instructors who've faced the Luftwaffe without flinching. Very soon he's grounded, discharged, and back to his old life in the Dales around Darrowby... James Herriot's sixth volume of unforgettable memoirs sees him dreaming of the day when he can rejoin his wife Helen, little son Jimmy, and veterinary partners - including the usual uproarious and bittersweet tales of taciturn farmers, and one beer-drinking pig..
