Acclaimed broadcaster and (slightly less acclaimed) pianist Jack Perkins has a book coming out. It’s a collection of his exceptionally well-written cricket reminiscences from the excellent indie-cricket blog Cricket Mystery. I commend it to you (and to the blog which is run by Jack’s boy Bryan). It slides off the presses later this month.
