CRICKET BOOKS
An excellent monograph reviewed by The Mac, complete with a wonderful story about how it came to be written
This new book amounts to a combined autobiography and biography of India’s wicketkeeper of the late 1970s and early 1980s
For those who read Martin’s review The Mac has taken a look at this delightful little book on the subject of what might one day be termed ‘Trumperana’
Almost 30 years after his early career autobiography Brian Lara has spoken, and not held back
It’s that man again, and The Mac’s take on a celebration of 100 years of the Victor Trumper Pavilion
Few cricket books are bestsellers, but this one must have come close at Christmas – what does our resident Lancastrian think of it?
In this review Archie looks at a book about the achievements in World War Two of players from a famous Sydney club
We may not see a better book than this one in 2025, but even if that is the case it could still turn out to be a very good year
If you don’t like spoilers, don’t read Martin’s review of this one after reading this one from Archie
