Book excerpt: John Arlott's rich Hampshire burr was the voice of BBC cricket commentary for many years, from the great Test match radio broadcasts of the fifties to bucolic Sunday League on the television in the seventies. But he was also a distinguished journalist for the Guardian, a Liberal parliamentary candidate, a courageous opponent of apartheid in sport from the earliest opportunity, and a connoisseur - and imbiber - of fine wine without equal. David Rayvem Allen's definitive biography was acclaimed on its first publication and won the Cricket Society's award for Cricket Book of the Year. Now reissued by Aurum in a new paperback edition to tie in with its publication of the author's authorised biography of E.W. Swanton, Arlott evokes both a broadcasting legend and a sensitive, humane man, whose graphic, pensive and wry commentaries came to epitomise the sound of an English summer.

Book excerpt: The 100 Greatest Cricketers takes the innovative approach of listing players in nine teams mdash; from Sir Donald Bradmanrsquo;s First XI to the Ninth XI featuring Peter May and Graeme Smith mdash; with Doug Walters as 100th Man! Of course, it is impossible for any such list to be truly definitive. This is perhaps the bookrsquo;s greatest appeal mdash; that you, the reader, are fully entitled to disagree with the authorrsquo;s opinion, while at the same time appreciating the qualities of the players profiled. Steve Waugh is not the only person who has wondered if the Second XI might beat the First XI. Who is in that top team? Who is rated as cricketrsquo;s greatest all-rounder, spinner, fast bowler and wicketkeeper? Who would you leave out to put your favourite player in? Were the old cricketers really so good? Have the modern champions superseded them? It was important in developing this Top 100 not to fall into the trap of picking players just because it has become fashionable to rate them highly. It is astonishing how some playersrsquo; reputations have grown as the memories of their playing days recede, while other more accomplished or important cricketers have been all but forgotten. For this third edition, five new players are included: Indiarsquo;s MS Dhoni (at No. 39), South Africarsquo;s AB de Villiers (No. 50), Hashim Amla (No. 61) and Dale Steyn (No. 71), and Indiarsquo;s Anil Kumble (No. 75). Sri Lankarsquo;s Kumar Sangakkara (No. 98 to No. 16) and South Africarsquo;s Jacques Kallis (No. 88 to No. 29) get big promotions. Fully revised and updated, The 100 Greatest Cricketers is a book to be savoured. Let the arguments begin!

Book excerpt: Historians of popular culture have recently been addressing the role of myth, and now it is time that social historians of sport also examined it. The contributors to this collection of essays explore the symbolic meanings that have been attached to sport in Europe by considering some of the mythic heroes who have dominated the sporting landscapes of their own countries. The ambition is to understand what these icons stood for in the eyes of those who watched or read about these vessels into which poured all manner of gender, class and patriotic expectations.
