CRICKETS GREAT ENTERTAINERS
335 pages, green binding. 8pp colour photos. 8pp b/w photos. D/Jt. very good. As a cricket writer and historian with an encyclopaedic knowledge and a unique brand of wickedly sharp humour, the author is the ideal man to select the great players (and commentators) who have livened up the sport over the years. We learn of the exploits of the legendary Ian Botham, a man who made up his own rules and has been at the centre of controversy on countless occasions; Garry Sobers, an immensely popular all-round great; and Dennis Lillee, the temperamental fast bowler who once held up a game with a tantrum when ordered to change his aluminium bat. Henry Blofeld regales us with marvellous - sometimes mischievous - stories to add to the "Boy's Own" nature of the book, and highlights those players who would make cricket lovers cancel their appointments to see them, even on a cold April day.
