Overview

In the heart of the English countryside, where the crack of willow on leather echoes through the air, a cricket match unfolds with all the charm and tension of a bygone era. This cricket fiction novel, now republished by Alpha Editions after being out of print for decades, captures the essence of sportsmanship and rivalry that defines the classic British novel. As the village teams clash on the verdant pitch, the story delves into the intricate dynamics of team spirit themes, where camaraderie and competition dance in a delicate balance. Set in the early 20th century, this tale is a vivid portrait of sports literature, celebrating not just the game of cricket but the very fabric of English society. It appeals to cricket enthusiasts and sports history readers alike, offering a nostalgic journey to a time when the sport was as much about honour and tradition as it was about skill and strategy. The narrative, reminiscent of the PG Wodehouse style and the wit of Jerome K Jerome, is a delightful exploration of human nature and the quirks that accompany it. This edition is not just a reprint-it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure, lovingly restored for today's and future generations. Immerse yourself in this cricket match story, where every ball bowled and every run scored is a testament to the enduring spirit of the game.
