Cricket is defined by the characters who have played it, watched
it, reported it, ruled upon it, ruined it and rejoiced in it.
Humorous and deeply affectionate, Cricketing Lives tells the story
of the world's greatest and most incomprehensible game through
those who have shaped it, from the rustic contests of
eighteenth-century England to the spectacle of the Indian Premier
League. It's about W. G. Grace and his eye to his wallet; the
invincible Viv Richards; and Sarah Taylor, 'the best wicketkeeper
in the world . . . male or female'. Paying homage, too, to the
game's great writers, Richard H. Thomas steers a course through the
despair of war, tactical controversies and internecine politics, to
reveal how cricket has always stormed back to warm our hearts as
nothing else can.
