Vets Might Fly

by James Herriot
Vets Might Fly - Thryft
Vets Might Fly - Thryft

Travel back in time with a wartime vet.

If you enjoy historical memoirs that offer a glimpse into the past and the life of a veterinarian during wartime, Vets Might Fly is the book for you. James Herriot's poignant storytelling paints a vivid picture of his experiences in the training camp and his longing for the people and animals he left behind.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
