Description

Cricket's rich history is woven into the fabric of English life, and Scyld Berry's latest book is a heartfelt celebration of the 18 first-class counties that have made it all possible. Drawing on 60 years of experience, Berry delves into the past to explore how the game took off, and why its survival is so important in today's changing landscape. As the England and Wales Cricket Board considers cutting the County Championship, Berry's in-depth profiles of each county offer a timely reminder of the significance of this centuries-old institution. With its unique blend of tradition and modernity, county cricket remains an integral part of English life, and Berry's book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the sport. By examining the workings of this beloved institution, Berry provides a nuanced understanding of why county cricket matters, and what its future holds.
