содержание цикла Записки ветеринарного врача
Настоящее имя автора – Альфред Уайт. Прежде чем взяться за перо, он десятки лет работал врачом-ветеринаром. Никакой учебник не мог помочь ему подготовиться к тому, что ждало молодого специалиста в небольшом йоркширском городке Дарроуби, потому что никакая теория не сравнится с практикой. Автор рассказывает о традициях местных фермеров, об удивительных, странных, смешных и трагических случаях, с которыми ему пришлось иметь дело.
