A MUST for any lover of Yorkshire!,
By A Customer
This review is from: James Herriot's Yorkshire Revisited (Hardcover)
This book is an exceptionally beautiful portrait of the spectacular scenery of the Yorkshire countryside. The photographs represent an excellent overview of the Herriot Country at its best. They bring to life the outstanding beauty which makes this area so unique...This book is a tremendous tribute to the memory of Alf Wight and his love of Yorkshire. Hopefully Jim Wight will do another!

A must for any Herriott fan.,
By A Customer
This review is from: James Herriot's Yorkshire Revisited (Hardcover)
This is the book that will show you the views that so uplifted the spirit of James Herriott through all the good and bad times. Superb photographs taken from his favorite places, with poignant extracts from his books give the reader a further insight into the world of this country vet. These are views that even people who have travelled to Thirsk are not likely to have seen in their entirety. Thank you Jim Wight.

Nice Pictures of Yorkshire,
By Lauren S. Kahn - Published on Amazon.com
This book contains photos of Yorkshire in conjunction with text drawn from Herriot's books. If you are a fan of Herriot, you probably would enjoy the book. Since it is a bargain price, it might make a nice gift item as well--especially for someone who has traveled in Yorkshire. Mine came without that tell tale black "bargain stripe" on the spine.I found one drawback to be that the photos are not identified as to location except in the back of the book. The logic behind this is that they are supposed to evoke the atmosphere of what was said in the books (which may not have been a specific place) rather than a specific location. OK, then why put the locations in the back? Looking back there to identify the locations was cumbersome. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
