Download or read book Edwin Smith: A Life in Derbyshire Cricket written by Steve Dolman and published by Association of Cricket Statisticians and Historians. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edwin Smith will almost certainly be the last Derbyshire bowler to take over a thousand first-class wickets. For 20 summers between 1951 and 1971, he provided the county with a reliable spin option when conditions didn’t favour their succession of outstanding seam bowlers. In the course of those summers, he took 1,217 wickets and scored almost 7,000 runs, taking five or more wickets in an innings on 51 occasions. Only five men in the club’s 145-year history have taken more wickets for the county. Now in retirement in the Grassmoor village where he was born, Edwin’s story is that of a man who gave his life to Derbyshire cricket. As well as playing, he coached the county side and took thousands of wickets in local league cricket. He played his last match at the age of 74, almost 60 years after his first appearance for his village side. A respected coach in and around Chesterfield, this is the story of one of cricket’s unsung heroes and one of the most popular men to wear the county colours. The book captures the period in which he played the game and features many of its greatest characters.

Book Synopsis The Summer Field: A History of English Cricket Since 1840 by : Mark Rowe
Download or read book The Summer Field: A History of English Cricket Since 1840 written by Mark Rowe and published by Association of Cricket Statisticians and Historians. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cricket has come a long way since players could only travel on foot, or by horse and cart. Some things never change; someone has to bat, someone bowl, someone be captain; everyone has to learn. The game is nothing without cricketers; yet the men (or women) on the field are never the full story, as The Summer Field shows. It includes spectators, journalists, ground-keepers, coaches, umpires, selectors and tea ladies. Nor is it only the story of the greatest players, such as Sydney Barnes and Herbert Sutcliffe; we meet also Will Richards, the Nottingham school-teacher; his friend George Wakerley, the job-hunting club professional; and Freeman Barnardo, of Eton and Cambridge. This history of cricket since the coming of the railways seeks to answer questions, such as: what was it like to play cricket in the past? Who played it, and why did they? And why are the English so obsessed with Australia?

Book Synopsis The Secret Life of the Georgian Garden by : Kate Felus
Download or read book The Secret Life of the Georgian Garden written by Kate Felus and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georgian landscape gardens are among the most visited and enjoyed of the UK's historical treasures. The Georgian garden has also been hailed as the greatest British contribution to European Art, seen as a beautiful composition created from grass, trees and water - a landscape for contemplation. But scratch below the surface and history reveals these gardens were a lot less serene and, in places, a great deal more scandalous.Beautifully illustrated in colour and black & white, this book is about the daily life of the Georgian garden. It reveals its previously untold secrets from early morning rides through to evening amorous liaisons. It explains how by the eighteenth century there was a desire to escape the busy country house where privacy was at a premium, and how these gardens evolved aesthetically, with modestly-sized, far-flung temples and other eye-catchers, to cater for escape and solitude as well as food, drink, music and fireworks. Its publication coincides with the 2016 tercentenary of the birth of Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, arguably Britain's greatest ever landscape gardener, and the book is uniquely positioned to put Brown's work into its social context.
