“The lessons that these animals taught me have been subtle, startling, and inspirational, playing a small but vital part in helping to shape the person you see with the stethoscope around his neck.” —Dr. Nick Trout
New York Times bestselling author Nick Trout has captivated readers by taking them behind the scenes into the heartwarming—and sometimes heartrending—world of veterinary medicine. In Ever By My Side, Nick turns the lens inward to offer a funny, moving, and intimate memoir about how the pets he has had throughout his life have shaped him into the son, husband, father, and doctor he is today. Using his relationships with those beloved animals to tell his life story, Nick shares the profound lessons he’s learned about friendship, loyalty, and resilience. The result is a moving story that speaks not just to animal lovers, but to any reader who appreciates the bonds we have with our loved ones, be they animal or human, and the lengths to which we go to nurture those bonds.
Nick waxes nostalgic about his boyhood in a working-class British suburb, where a large German shepherd named Patch was the perfect companion to a scrawny, bookish boy in a neighborhood full of bullies. He writes about his relationship with his father, the man who nurtured Nick’s dream of becoming a vet, even though he couldn’t have imagined the career would lead his only son 3,000 miles away. He describes wooing his future wife and stepdaughter and (perhaps most difficult of all) their ornery cat. And he offers a poignant chronicle of his daughter’s devastating diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and how a little yellow Labrador retriever played an important role in bringing joy to their family when they needed it most. Alongside Nick’s warm reflections, the pets in these pages come alive as irresistible characters in their own right and showcase the power of animals to offer a lifetime of consolation, guidance, and abiding affection.
Tender, wry, and ruminative, Ever By My Side is a tribute to the power and beauty of ordinary life and a celebration of how pets make it all the sweeter and richer.

Trout Dishes
By Julia A. Andrews
Where have I been? I was astounded when I realized there was a new British animal vet publishing stories about his charges. Enthralled with all things Herriot (yes, I have even toured his surgery in Thirsk) I was delighted to find another British vet picking up Herriot's mantle.
Dr Trout need not worry about my comparisons to James Herriot, his father was a true Herriot groupie, infusing his son with all things bright and beautiful in hopes it would influence Nick's choice of surgery location and a farm animal practice. In fact, their only family holiday was a trip to the Yorkshire Dales, viewing the television show's exterior locations with their own visit to Thirsk, where they met James Wight (James Herriot's alter ego). Mum and Dad even bought a retirement cottage in the Dales. How could their son not set up a vet practice, managed by the retired Dad, in such a beautiful location?
Dr. Trout has a mind and destiny of his own. Moving across the pond to Boston to advance his surgical training, he finds his future wife and family. Pets mark the important passages of his family and parents lives. From his boyhood's German Shephard (dog lovers will go wild over the abundance of endearing stories) to his daughter's cat that owned the 'hood. Throughout he relates how pets drew him closer to his parents, his own children and them to him. Although our furry family cannot stay with us forever, their memories and impact always do.
Nick's memoir is centered on the impact the love of animals have on humans throughout our lives. His is not an overly sentimental, sugary story. He takes a compassionate view of his charges and their humans. Showing us the unconditional love our furry friends bring to us. They round us out, plump us up and make our lives better. They help us realize how important other people are to us. That is no small feat.
Herriot who?
Enjoy the read!

Family and other animals
By KnC Books
In my mind there are two great authors of non-fiction about animals; on the serious side we have James Herriot, MCVS. It is no great leap to compare this book with Herriot's body of work. The author's father is a Herriot groupie, and much of the book involves Dr. Trout's efforts to free himself of the burden this casts on his professional life.
In the process of weaving this story around his family and the pets that moved through their lives, Trout brought another author to mind: a devout dog person who changed the way many of us look at our four-legged friends, James Thurber. When I read certain passages regarding a yellow Labrador puppy it was like reading "The Dog Who Bit People" Thurber's dogs: A collection of the master's dogs, written and drawn, real and imaginary, living and long ago (A Touchstone book)for the first time again. Trout, like Thurber, lets us see his dogs as DOGS, not furry children. They keep their identity and dignity, and are none the less for it.
And as for cats ...
Like Trout, I have had dogs all my life. Like the good Doctor, only one cat ever managed to make it through my canine defenses. She established herself in my life, and found her place with the two dogs in my house. She departed in the same way she arrived, on her own terms. There may be only one cat in this book, but there really is no need for another; the comparison would simply not be fair.
A good fast read that works on several levels - parents and kids and pets measured out over a space of time, growing together, touching one another's lives, and moving on - in short, life as we know it. Enjoy!

Heartwarming and sweet
By Drew McLellan
In the book Ever By My Side, Nick Trout compares himself, rather unfavorably, to beloved author and vet James Herriot, so I will do the same. I loved Herriot's storytelling but what I missed were the personal reflections that no doubt went with those stories. I always felt like Herriot was holding out on me a little.
That's why I loved Trout's newest book. Yes the animal stories are sweet but even more enjoyable were the people stories...as they lived, loved and grew along side the animals. Best of all Trout allows us into his own life as he reflects on his role as a man, son and father. How these relationships play out and unfold is really the heart of the book.
For me, this book was all about family, love and legacies...both from the two and four legged perspective. I think you'll not only love this book but I predict there is someone important to your life that you'll share it with as well.
