Cricket book. The only full length cricket biography of the explosive Hampshire and West Indies opener who, with Desmond Haynes, formed one of the most destructive opening pairings ever seen. 8vo. 207pp. 16 pages of photographs. Dust-wrapper, good. The book has previously been damp and so the page block is warped and there is some mild staining to covers and pages.
