"David Foot has subtitled Harold Gimbett 'Tormented Genius of Cricket' and his biography justifies it. This is no cosy recital of runs or wickets, of comfortable success; but of the mental agony of one man who, despite his outstanding cricket gifts, never gained the satisfaction they seemed to offer. . Mr Foot deserves the admiration and thanks of all who care for human truth in a game which does not always face facts." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions.

First published 1990, first edition. Set in Linotron Sabon by Rowland Phototypesetting Ltd, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. Originated, printed and bound by C.S. Graphics Pte Ltd Singapore. " Sketches at Lord's concentrates exclusively on the cricket lithographs of the Victorian Scholar and artist, John Corbet Anderson. These drawings, although neither large in number nor main focus of Anderson's life and work, hold a unique place in cricketing history. Drawn in the middle years of the nineteenth century, they depict the great names in the game immediately prior to the introduction of photography. In turn the text looks at Anderson, the very essence of sober and industrious Victorian man, the illustrations, with details of publications dates and original sizes, and the cricketeers, the band of contemporary players ranging from Martingell to Mynn and from Parr to Pilch. In addition the book contains important background information about the printers and publishers of the lithographs and a number of contemporary illustrations which relate to subjects in Anderson's work. But pride of place must go to the fine reproductions of the fifty odd lithographs which represent the pick of the cricketing art of John Corbet Anderson.
