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

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Donald has always encapsulated a lot of what inspires me. He was a remarkable sportsman and an Australian Legend, who handled his fame with class. His cricket prowess and longevity of life meant that a lot of memorabilia was produced since around 1930 and there is always a market for it. As a person inflicted with the collecting bug and a strong sense of National pride, I couldnt help myself! There are many collectors and museums in the cricketing world, but there is very little reference material relating to their treasures. I have always kept the sales advertisements, brochures, certificates and boxes pertaining to the items in my collection, because they give it more meaning. An item of memorabilia can give you visual stimulus and even prompt some feelings relating to its procurement or your journey to see it. However, Ive learnt that a little bit of knowledge can also transcend an item of memorabilia from an object to something more of a friend or family member. For the statistically minded, there are 209 A4 pages, featuring 141 different items, 214 colour images, 381 references and 89 different cricketers are mentioned in connection with the items.
Download or read book The Bradman Albums written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sport is such an important part of our national identity that is hardly possible that a sportsperson can come along and transcend the sport they play. But it does happen, every generation or so, someone comes along with skills so finely tuned, that they change the game they play and forever become synonymous with that sport. More than that, their skills and attitudes come to symbolise that sport. For millions of people in Australia and around the world The Don was Australian cricket. Sir Donald Bradman was, beyond any argument, the greatest batsman who ever lived and the greatest cricketer of the 20th century. In that time, his reputation not merely as a player but as an administrator, selector, sage and cricketing statesman only increased."--Provided by publisher.
