A book that has been sitting on my shelf for quite some time, and one that I keep meaning to read, now that I have read Martin’s review it may sit there for awhile longer.
CRICKET BOOKS
A book that flew under the radar, released with no real fanfare, what did Stuart think of this underrated publication.
The book is subtitled “the Perspicacious Memoirs of a Cricketing Man” which sums up what Pat Pocock appeared as on the cricket field.
Phil Mead, long forgotten by all but the most tragic of cricket supporters. Will this bio of the great batsman rekindle his memory? See what Archie thinks
Another Chalke book and another five star award from Martin. As I have read this offering, I have to say that I am in complete agreement with his assessment.
After reading this double review it seems we may have to find a younger reviewer, as our current team are a little long in the tooth. This book certainly looks like a great present for the budding cricketer.
This week a double review, as Stuart and Archie take a look at a new book by first time cricket book author Barry Nicholls.
Archie loves his old-timers, and with Hugh Trumble being a golden age great, he was biting at the bit to read this two volume set. Read his thoughts.
In view of the number of enquiries we receive the Book Review Team have prepared this report on where to buy collectable books.
The writer David Lemmon, who died in 1998, specialised somewhat prolifically in English county cricket.
