Here is the inside story of Fairfield Books: from its beginnings in
the cricket coaching that the 45-year-old Stephen Chalke sought in
the autumn of 1993 through the journeys around England and Wales
that generated his first book 'Runs in the Memory' and on to the
publication of 42 titles. The characters are recalled, the issues
involved in creating books based on oral testimony considered, and
the triumphs and disasters of small-scale publishing described.
There are moments of great humour and harrowing tragedy, of
unnerving encounters and unexpected revelations. 'Through The
Remembered Gate' tells the story of a journey of discovery. Its
author starts out with a desire to write but little knowledge of
publishing, and with a love of cricket but no significant contacts
in the game. By a series of accidents he becomes a chronicler of
cricket's past and an established publisher of his own and others'
books. Despite its moments of sorrow, it is a tale filled with
joys. Into this rich mix the author adds a little of his own back
story, revealing how these journeys into cricket's past have led
him to see the world of his childhood with a fresh perspective.
