of stories, he describes the cricketers, the matches and the character of the clubs.
Dickie Bird: My Autobiography
Dickie Bird: My Autobiography - by
Dickie Bird, Michael Parkinson. When Dickie Bird tried to get his first match with
Barnsley Cricket Club, he was just 15 years old. But when the batsman in the nets took one
look at the skinny teenager and sent him on his way, Dickie Bird was nearly lost to
cricket forever.
Boycs: the True Story
Boycs: the True Story - by Leo
McKinstry. Billing Geoff Boycott (as the inside cover of this biography does) as a
"charismatic, single-minded and often exasperating personality" may be, to some,
not unlike calling Attila the Hun somebody "who liked to pick an argument".
Yakking Around the World
Yakking Around the World - by
Simon Hughes. As a cricketer Simon Hughes enjoyed not immoderate success as a bowler with
a championship-winning Middlesex side. As a writer, his previous effort A
Lot of Hard Yakka, a tale of the life of an English county cricketer,
won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award in 1997.
Rain Men
Rain Men - by Marcus Berkmann.
This text is aimed at the cricket devotee; at the person who listens to the Test Match
special on a motorway and narrowly avoids crashing whenever someone takes a wicket.
