Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the beloved cricket writer Robert Lynd as he travels to the 1922 Grand National and other prestigious sporting events like Wimbledon and various Test Matches. Lynd wasn't an avid sports fan, rather he was attracted to these large-scale events to observe the spectacle and pageantry of the crowd and the fans. This perspective colors his witty, thoughtful and charmingly nostalgic accounts with a keen eye for detail and the vast societal phenomena these events inspired. His portraits of the famous cricketing legends of the day, such as Gregory, provide a personal touch, as does his commentary on the social mores and fads of the era. Through his words, we experience the frenzy of winning and the camaraderie of friendly competition. This collection of Lynd's timeless essays inspires readers to reflect on the intersection of sports and society, and the cultural impact of these events that serve as collective experiences for an entire nation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
