Description

Pulpit Cricket and Other Stories by Fergus McKendrick with illustrations by Val Biro. In this vastly entertaining collections of cricket stories, Fergus McKendrick takes an affectionate look at some of the more unusual aspects of the National Obsession, drawing on situations which will be familiar to anybody who has wielded a cricket bat, real or imaginary. On the field of play, the subjects of his stories discover how to bowl on jelly-fish affected wickets in Beach Cricket; how to avoid the more unseemly aspects of French Cricket; and how to make best use of the playing conditions in Street Cricket. Those unable to take to the field through no fault of their own will find comfort in Pavilion Cricket, Book Cricket and , above all, Pulpit Cricket, which offers an entirely new reason for going to church.' The dust jacket has some scratches and sun fade spine but the book remains tight and bright.
