Item description from seller

N.D (1921) Some staining, rubbing and rolling to the boards. The contents are moderately foxed throughout. Pencil inscription to the front paste down. As a right-hand batsman, Warner played first-class cricket for Oxford University, Middlesex and England. He played 15 Test matches, captaining in 10 of them, with a record of won 4, lost 6. He succeeded in regaining The Ashes in 1903-04, winning the series against Australia 3-2. However he was less successful when he captained England on the tour of South Africa in 1905-06, suffering a resounding 1-4 defeat, the first time England had lost to South Africa in a Test match. He was also to have captained England on the 1911-12 tour of Australia, but fell ill. He was unable to play in any of the Tests, with Johnny Douglas taking over the captaincy. He is also the first and only debutant centurion in test history to carry his bat right through the innings of a test match 0.
