Now, his children Rosie and Jim are to sign a new book at the house and surgery where their father lived and worked, and where he penned his stories as James Herriot.

Ian Ashton, managing director of visitor attraction The World of James Herriot, said: "Rosie and Jim’s insights add authenticity to the many tales of the animals and people which are at the heart of Herriot’s stories. There’s never a dull moment in Herriot’s company, whether he’s becoming pen pals with Tricki Woo the spoilt Pekingese, dodging a raging bull on a risky artificial insemination assignment, or the inevitable trials and tribulations of lambing season, Rosie and Jim have seen it all.”
The book signing will be at the attraction on November 4 from 11am.
