Ha ha, sitting here trying to write this bio of Clem is proving very frustrating
Just read your review, good stuff. I also enjoyed this bio and even my wife read it and thoroughly enjoyed it

Nice review Martin - I must say I found the portrayal of him in the TV series somewhat laughable, very much the comic-strip villain. It was that bloke from The Matrix and Lord of the Rings, wasn't it? Hugh Jorgan or some such.

You can`t go past David Fifth`s Bodyline Autopsy for a very good, rounded portrait of Jardine.
Anyway, ordered Victor Trumper and the 1902/03 Australians from England for some Winter Vacation reading.

Read the Trumper one (a few years ago now) remember it being not too bad a lot more interesting then the one on the 1899 series anyway, by Sharpman I think

This week's book doesn't sound too promising, but it seems from David's review that the old adage about not judging books by their cover applies.
