R. C. Robertson-Glasgow once again employs his well-known wit and
urbanity to introduce a further collection of cricketing portraits
.This time he has winded his scope to include not only the
cricketers who have won international fame, but also those who have
given years of faithful service to their countries and
universities. Ranging from Sir Aubrey Smith, whose cricketing feats
for Sussex and Cambridge date back to the mellow Edwardian days, to
Kenneth Miller, dashing Australian batsman-bowler, these prints
include such stalwarts as, Laurie Fishlock, Len Hutton and L.J.Todd
of Kent-and J.M. Lomas, the graceful Oxford batsman, whose untimely
death robbed cricket of a potential great name. Robertson-Glasgow,
former Oxford University and Somerset cricketer and now
correspondent for the Observer brings not only wide playing
experience but years of acute observation and comparative criticism
to bear on his subject. His style, as easy and assured as a Compton
off-drive, combines with his wisdom and kindly shrewdness to make
this book a memorable successor to Cricket Prints, his first book.
