Disappointing... (3/4 people found this helpful)
Having very much enjoyed An Evening With Blowers, I found this book a let down. It didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know, and had some errors that will make cricket buffs scream. (Gooch was recalled to England colours in 1978 not 1979; Tony Greig could not have alerted Brearley to Lillee's Aluminium bat as he was commentating, and the action happened mid session; Glenn McGrath is shown on the back cover, but doesn't qualify for a chapter in his own right; and worst of all, the book blithely assumes Steve Wuagh retired after the Ashes last year.) I'd expect a book by such an illustrious character to better researched and/or proof read.
