Field of Tents and Waving Colours
Field of Tents and Waving Colours
Cardus was for many years cricket correspondent of the (then Manchester) Guardian, but wrote for a host of other publications including Wisden. Before him, cricket writing meant rather drybones match reports full of statistics and jargon. Cardus wrote about the event: the sylvan ground, the emotion of watching a great batsman like Victor Trumper in full flow.
For everyone who wants to sample his finest writings, Safe Haven now publishes a new volume of Cardus's best cricket writings.
Here is Cardus on Don Bradman, Victor Trumper, Denis Compton and Richie Benaud, at Roses matches and the arcadian cricket festival at Dover beneath Shakespeare Cliff, seeing the Australians defeated at Eastbourne - and of course at the home of cricket, Lord's.
A handsome small hardback with retro cover illustration, here is a book for every lover of fine writing on the Summer Game.
