Introducing a new series from the author of the Constable books When Matthew Taylor began work as an insurance agent he never anticipated that on his first day he would deliver a stallion foal and kill seven pigs. In1950s rural Delverdale, deep in the North York Moors, it's all in a day's work, though - and Matthew and his new family, wife Evelyn and baby Paul, are happy to rise to the challenge.
Some similarities to James Herriot, only with an insurance salesman. I enjoyed the Constable books that were the basis for the Heartbeat television series. Some funny stories. A good look into life in Yorkshire in the early 1950s. Quick read.
