Answer:
Explanation:
Chapter 1
The novel begins in the middle of the action: the main character is birthing a calf from a mother cow. The protagonist and first-person narrator, veterinarian James Herriot, had been called in the middle of the night to the Dinsdale's farm in the countryside, and it is snowing and windy outside.
Herriot is working to change the position of a calf while it is still inside the cow's womb. His entire arm is inside the cow’s womb, while he lies on the cold stone floor, shirtless and caked in blood and dirt. Herriot is beginning to lose hope because he has been working for hours unsuccessfully. He thinks of how birthing calves did not look this hard in his textbooks in school.
Meanwhile, ‘Uncle’, whose brother owns the farm, is extremely critical and is constantly giving Herriot advice on what he should be doing. Uncle seems to take pleasure in Herriot's struggle, especially because Herriot is a new vet who has just arrived in town. Herriot wants to prove Uncle wrong, and he feels he has done so when he is finally able to birth the calf, alive. Watching the mother and baby, Herriot pauses for a moment to appreciate the miracle of the baby animal. Herriot, feeling good about his work and about disproving Uncle, heads to his car. But, as Herriot is leaving, he hears Uncle call after him to give him one more piece of unsolicited advice.
