Cricket - C.L.R. James,
By Patrick Cozier (Barbados) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cricket (Paperback)
Written as a chronlogical reflection on cricket, primarily during the period of the 30's to the 60's, but with notional reference to the 70's and 80's. The style is characteristic of James' socio-political relationship with the game and the extent to which its exploits are reflective of the society and the times. The book centres around letters, publications and addresses by the author potraying characters, games and events of noteworthiness. His renown as a social intellect is evident in his treatment, and his reference to greats like Sobers,Hammond,Headley and Worrell is mindful of ancient Greek dissertations on the Gods. The publication is a bit heavy for the casual crcket reader looking for scores or match reports, but makes compelling reading for the serious cricket students and social intellects.
