Summary
Carries us back to the era when the ground was not oval, when captains acted as umpires, when players wore caps and jerseys bearing forgotten colours and kicked a round ball that soon lost its shape. An excellent social history and a compulsory read for all true fans of the game, this book will also appeal to cricket and rugby fans.
