Few sporting records capture the imagination quite like that of the
highest individual score in Test cricket. It is the blue riband
record of batting achievement, the ultimate statement of stamina
and skill. From Charles Bannerman, who scored 165 for Australia
against England in the inaugural Test match in 1877, to Brian Lara,
who made 400 not out for West Indies against England in 2004, the
record has changed hands ten times. Chris Waters' The Men Who
Raised the Bar charts the growth of the record through nearly one
hundred and fifty years of Test cricket. It is a journey that takes
in a legendary line of famous names including Sir Donald Bradman,
Sir Leonard Hutton, Sir Garfield Sobers and Walter Hammond, along
with less heralded players whose stories are brought back into the
light. Drawing on the reflections of the record-holders, Waters
profiles the men who raised the bar and their historic
performances.
