Description

Anarchic, hilarious and insightful, Graeme Fowler's look at life and cricket is a compelling and unmissable read.

Fowler was a successful county cricketer who played for more than 15 years at the top level, and for three years in the 1980s he lined up for his country, becoming the first England batsman ever to score a Test double century in India.

After retiring from the game, he became a renowned coach, helping to develop Durham University into one of the best training grounds for the professional game, with former students including future England captain Andrew Strauss. Now, in this fascinating, frank and very amusing book, Fowler recalls the highlights of his career, reliving some extraordinary times.

He discusses how the game of cricket has evolved, how it is played and how it should be played.

More seriously, Fowler has battled with depression, and he writes movingly about his struggles with the illness and his work to help others to understand how they can deal with the problem. Fowler is a unique character in a game that so often seems devoid of them.

This book will entertain and enlighten anyone who wants to understand more about life and cricket.
