Grace Although it falls to my lot to Open the innings of the great side that has been gathered to do justice to the Champion's memory, as generally happens the Introduction is the very last portion of the book to be written. Therefore it seems to me that everything has been stated, and yet it behoves me to contribute my Share when others have so generously given Of their best. Ever Since I can remember, cricket was my greatest hobby, and looking back to my earliest boyhood it seems to me that cricket and Grace were synonymous. For nobody ever spoke Of cricket without alluding to W. G. He symbolized cricket for every one who began to play after he became champion. He even attracted many to watch him who under no other circumstances would have thought of witnessing a match.

His beard and massive frame made him instantly recognisable wherever he went and his gamesmanship and wit were legendary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a sunny afternoon in May 1868, nineteen-year-old Gilbert Grace stood in a Wiltshire field, wondering why he was playing cricket against the Great Western Railway Club. A batting genius, 'W. G.' should have been starring at Lord's in the grand opening match of the season. But MCC did not want to elect this humble son of a provincial doctor. W. G's career was faltering before it had barely begun. Grace finally forced his way into MCC and over the next three decades, millions came to watch him - not just at Lord's, but across the British Empire and beyond. Only W. G. could boast a fan base that stretched from an American Civil War general and the Prince of Wales's mistress to the children who fingered his coat-tails as he walked down the street, just to say 'I touched him'. The public never knew the darker story behind W. G.'s triumphal progress. Accused of avarice, W. G. was married to the daughter of a bankrupt. Disparaged as a simpleton, his subversive mind recast how to play sport - thrillingly hard, pushing the rules, beating his opponents his own way. In Amazing Grace, Richard Tomlinson unearths a life lived so far ahead of his times that W. G. is still misunderstood today. For the first time, Tomlinson delves into long-buried archives in England and Australia to reveal the real W. G: a self-made, self-destructive genius, at odds with the world and himself.

Download or read book The Victorian Visitors written by Rupert Christiansen and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2002-08-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, London was a city of big money, large audiences, and creative dynamism. In The Victorian Visitors, Rupert Christiansen lucidly captures the city to which visitors went in search of the artistic fervor, fame, and wealth that only London could offer. The great French painter Theodore Gericault escaped to London after a disappointing reception in Paris to show his painting, Raft of the "Medusa." The high pitch and hustle of London life influenced the fecundity and variety of several of his paintings, including Derby d'Epsom. Composer Richard Wagner went for the first time in search of money, but was disappointed to find the audiences indiscriminating, the musicians poorly trained, and the weather depressing. Writing to his friend Liszt in a frenzy of despair, he said, "I live here like a damned soul in hell." Then there was the demon Australian bowler, Frederick Spofforth, who changed the course of English cricket.
