The
Real James Herriot
No one is better placed to write the
biography of Alf Wight, alias James Herriot, than
the son who worked alongside him in the veterinary
practice during the time that James Herriot became
a bestselling author. In this warm and often
poignant memoir Jim Wight writes of a man who, despite
his huge success as a writer, remained unchanged by
wealth and fame; an essentially private person whose
family had to share him with his millions of fans
throughout the world. Alf Wight was born in
Sunderland, but moved a few weeks later to Glasgow;
here he had a happy rough-and-tumble childhood.
After training at the Glasgow Veterinary College he
accepted a job in the North Yorkshire town of Thirsk
(aka Darrowby) where he remained in practice for over
50 years. The story of the young vet's journey
to Thirsk to take up the post of assistant vet to
Donald Sinclair (Siegfried Farnon) is one that is
well known through James Herriot's celebrated books,
as well as two films and the "All Creatures Great
and Small" television series. Alf Wight was
respected and trusted by everyone whose animals he
tended and, as James Herriot, loved by a huge and
loyal readership the world over.
