8vo; original grey cloth, a little sunned, and mottled on spine; no dustwrapper; previous owner's name erased on front endpaper; pp. 260; black-and-white photographic plates; scattered light foxing. Good condition. "Jack Fingleton is that rare combination - first-class cricketer and first-class writer. For his assessments of cricketers of an earlier generation he has studied the history of the game and gone to good judges with first-hand information on his subjects to build up warm, penetrating and balanced portraits of some of the greatest names cricket has ever known. On modern players and administrators he is, as usual, trenchant and well informed: his evaluations - of Ian Craig as Captain of Australia; of tendencies in modern cricket-writing, and of the present control of cricket in Australia - should make a deep impression on our thinking about cricket.".

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. 260pp plus numerous black and white plate illustrations. In grey cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering (slightly rounded at spine ends). Internally neat, clean, bright and tight barring a small, faint number stamped on the front free endpaper. In its original dust jacket (a little chipped on edges with minor loss around head of spine, minor shelf wear visible on reverse). At the end of the 1953 Australian cricket team tour, the incomparable Ray Lindwall had taken 158 test wickets. In this volume he traces his career from a cricket mad teenager to becoming Australia's shock bowler number one, and gives the story of dramatic Test Matches and off-the-field incidents.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Pavilion Book Edition. Paperback. Slight browning to edges of pages through age. Introduction by Michael Parkinson. The Ashes series of 1953 is remembered as one of the most exciting and evenly contested series of all time. Writing with his characteristic wit and common sense, Joack Fingleton, probably the greatest of all the Australian cricket writers, gives a lively account of how Len Hutton's England team added to the celebrations of Coronation year by winning back the Ashes. The popular Australian captain, Lindsay Hassett, had an attractive side to lead, including Miller, Harvey, Morris, Lindwall and Davidson, and Fingleton reports on the entertaining cricket they played as the toured the counties and the hard-fought Test series against a powerful England side in which Compton, Edrich, Hutton, May and Graveney all made runs and Bedser dominated the attack. In addition to his perceptive portraits of the players and analysis of the action, Fingelton's gift for sharp observation and his obvious relish for the Old Country make this book a funny and affectionate Australian view of England in party mood and a glowing record of a splendid year. Illustrated. 320 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
