Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Corgi Edition. Summers Will Never be the Same: illustrated A Tribute to Brian Johnston Brian Johnston, who died in January 1994, was one of the best-loved figures on radio. His unique broadcasting style won him a special place in the hearts of listeners everywhere. Although 'Johnners' became known as the voice of cricket, he was also a national figure as the presenter of Down Your Way. His many other broadcasting credits include presenting for television the Queen's Coronation and the Boat Race. Most of all, Johnners will be remebered for his schoolboy humour. This volume of tributes includes anecdotes and memoirs from over sixty colleagues and friends - including John Major, Sir Colin Cowdrey, Richie Benaud, John Paul Getty, Lord Whitelaw, Time Rice, Lord Carrington and Jonathan Agnew - as well as short extracts from Johnners's own publications and transcripts of some of his most famous broadcasts. Illustrated with photographs and cartoons. 222 pp. Couple of very slight creases to cover.
