Download or read book The Great Romantic written by Duncan Hamilton and published by Hodder & Stoughton. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neville Cardus described how one majestic stroke-maker 'made music' and 'spread beauty' with his bat. Between two world wars, he became the laureate of cricket by doing the same with words. In The Great Romantic, award-winning author Duncan Hamilton demonstrates how Cardus changed sports journalism for ever. While popularising cricket - while appealing, in Cardus' words to people who 'didn't know a leg-break from the pavilion cat at Lord's'- he became a star in his own right with exquisite phrase-making, disdain for statistics and a penchant for literary and musical allusions. Among those who venerated Cardus were PG Wodehouse, John Arlott, Harold Pinter, JB Priestley and Don Bradman. However, behind the rhapsody in blue skies, green grass and colourful characters, this richly evocative biography finds that Cardus' mother was a prostitute, he never knew his father and he received negligible education. Infatuations with younger women ran parallel to a decidedly unromantic marriage. And, astonishingly, the supreme stylist's aversion to factual accuracy led to his reporting on matches he never attended. Yet Cardus also belied his impoverished origins to prosper in a second class-conscious profession, becoming a music critic of international renown. The Great Romantic uncovers the dark enigma within a golden age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia's fifth Golden Age began following the defeat of the West Indies in 1995 by Mark Taylor's team, but the seeds had been laid a few years before... In A Golden Age, universally respected commentator and former Australian cricket captain Ian Chappell brings together a collection of his articles written on the Australian cricket team and their international opponents over the last 20 years. From the late 1980s to the present day, Ian has witnessed the development of an extraordinarily successful Australian team, so successful in fact that he sees them representing a fifth Golden Age of Australian cricket. In this collection he charts their rise, and expertly examines the defining styles of the world's cricket captains and their teams, as well as controversial issues such as match-fixing, and the impact of technology on the game. As a perceptive commentator Ian's views and opinions are injected with the same honesty and directness that characterised his playing days. Written with inimitable passion and flair, he gives us a taste of some of the best cricket played around the world in the past two decades and shows us exactly why Australia has proved so dominant in this era.
