Description

This book explores the dynamics of Anglo-Australian cricketing relations within the `British World' in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

It explores what these interactions can tell us about broader Anglo-Australian relations during this period and, in particular, the evolution of an Australian national identity.

Sport was, and is, a key aspect of Australian culture.

Jared van Duinen demonstrates how sport was used to rehearse an identity that would then emerge in broader cultural and political terms.

Using cricket as a case study, this book contributes to the ongoing historiographical debate about the nature and evolution of an Australian national identity.
