Download or read book Bradman Revisited written by A. L. Shillinglaw and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people interested in cricket might very well view another book about Don Bradman with a sigh and wonder if there can be anything new to say on the subject. It is, of course, an understandable reaction as up until now books about 'The Don' have followed a similar pattern, concentrating almost exclusively on his achievements and life story as the greatest exponent of the art of batsmanship in the 20th Century. However, what no book about Bradman has tackled until now is the reasons why he was so much better than anyone else. 'Bradman Revisited - The Legacy of Sir Donald Bradman' does just that. Drawing on the thoughts of Bradman himself, contemporary eye-witness accounts, film and video evidence and recent research done at the John Moores University in Liverpool, author Tony Shillinglaw gets to the heart of the matter of the Bradman phenomenon, revealing the answers to the most important questions: What made Don Bradman so much better than anyone else? What was his secret? Can his method be adopted by aspiring batsmen? It also addresses the reasons why Bradman was misunderstood during his playing career, and why nobody until now has made a fully comprehensive study of the method
Download or read book Bradman written by Charles Williams and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterly portrait of cricket's supreme batsman and Australia's greatest hero. Uniquely among biographers of Don Bradman, Charles Williams sets his subject's cricketing achievements within the context of a crucial period in the history of modern Australia, a time when, as the country felt her way towards something that the world would recognise as 'nationhood', Bradman became a focus for national aspirations, a figure of unique status. Brilliantly revealing the phenomenon of Bradman's cricketing genius - and the tensions that genius created for the man, his family, team-mates and the game's administrators - Williams' story is as much about Australia as it is a great Australian.

Download or read book The Field written by Douglas Booth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2006 North American Society for Sports History Book of the Year The literature on sport history is now well established, taking in a wide range of themes and covering every activity from aerobics to zorbing. However, in comparison to most mainstream histories, sport history has rarely been called upon to question its foundations and account for the basis of its historical knowledge. In this book, Booth offers a rigorous assessment of sport history as an academic discipline, exploring the ways in which professional historians can gather materials, construct and examine evidence, and present their arguments about the sporting past. Part 1 examines theories of knowledge, while Part 2 goes on to scrutinize the uses of historical knowledge in popular and academic studies of sport history. With clear structure, examples, summary tables and a detailed glossary, The Field provides students, teachers and researchers with an unparalleled resource to tackle issues fundamental to the future of their subject, and sets the agenda for the debate to come.
