Yorkshire Vet, Julian Norton, is back with a new book of anecdotes from his veterinary work in North Yorkshire.
Ruminations of a Yorkshire Vet continues his 'Diary' series of books. His work is varied and, during this period of Julian's work, most of his days are filled with farm animals: calving cows and replacing prolapses, treating milk fever, and even removing an eye from a bull!
Other cases include: sheep semen; lopsided fish; accident-prone cats; bald guineapigs; a three-legged hedgehog; Perky the pigeon; Elvis the goat; minty gloves; and much, much more.
Julian's diary covers the Covid-19 pandemic and documents how this affected his veterinary work. He ruminates on life and chews the cud over his unexpected but happy television career.
Written in the charming manner familiar to those who have watched the Channel 5 hit series The Yorkshire Vet, this book is a fun and enjoyable read.
It is beautifully produced and illustrated throughout.
