About this book

"Collected here are the observations of over two hundred years of cricketers and cricket-watchers. From the pompous to the profane, the dextrous to the dim, here are the tribulations of the cricketer writ large. The politics, the preening, the fire and the fun; the grace and the grit, the sourness and the sincerity of the thinking man's sport"--Back cover.
