Lost Voices of Cricket - Softcover

To truly understand the modern game it is important to acknowledge what has gone before. This is an excellent concept to bring the history of the game to life so that it can be fully appreciated. --Mike Gatting, President of the MCC and former England captain

A fantastic account which comes across brilliantly. My grandfather was a true entertainer who put a smile on people's faces, and represented everything that embodies sport and particularly this great game. --Nick Compton, England batsman and grandson of Denis Compton
A proper treasure trove. --Andy Wilson, The Guardian

Over his long career as a cricket commentator and journalist, Ralph Dellor has met some of the greatest exponents of the "summer" game. In the 1990s he conducted a series of face-to-face taped interviews with famous cricketers past and present. Nine of these extraordinary interviews have now been captured in the written word. Ralph and his fellow sports journalist, Stephen Lamb, have edited and annotated the interviews so they are put into context of time and place. Each chapter is a classic piece of cricketing history, and an insight into the legends and lore of the game.
