Jonathan Rice began his writing career in 1977 by compiling with Tim Rice, Mike Read and Paul Gambaccini the immensely successful "Guinness British Hit Singles" and related titles, whose total sales ran into the millions. His solo writing career began with "The Compleat Cricketer" (1984), which was the first of around twenty books on cricket and other sports which he has written, edited or anthologised.
