New York Times bestselling author Nick Trout has captivated audiences with his books that take us behind the scenes into the heartwarming—and sometimes heartrending—world of veterinary medicine.

Nostalgic, warm, and insightful, Ever By My Side is about the power of animals to shape our lives, to teach us, and to bear witness to our struggles, triumphs, hopes, and fears.
