It’s been a few weeks since we reviewed a book from the ACS ‘Lives in Cricket’ series, so Martin has gone back almost to the start and read this one
CRICKET BOOKS
Not The Spin is back and under new management – is it as good as it was?
This is a booklet demonstrates that Clown cricket and Scotland are, or at least were in 1879, a most interesting combination
In this review Archie gives us his take on an obscure but very English aspect of cricket history
Archie has been reading Tim Paine’s autobiography – is it a cynical ‘cash in’ or a worthwhile read?
David Battersby has been looking at the Pakistan Eaglets again – has he come up with another winner?
A make over for Issue 13 of County Cricket Matters but, we are delighted to note, there has been no change in the quality of the content
The latest ACS Life in Cricket is, unusually, an Australian one, and one that Martin seems to have enjoyed reading
No one who saw him will ever forget Shane Warne, but for anyone needing a reminder of just what an entertainer he was it sounds like this is the book to buy
For any Australian stuck for a Christmas gift for a cricket loving friend or family member, it sounds like this one fits the bill perfectly
