About this book:
A collection of writings celebrating the early history and notable figures of the Hambledon Cricket Club, a cornerstone of 18th-century cricket. Rather than a comprehensive history, Lucas compiles key texts, including John Nyren’s Young Cricketer’s Tutor and The Cricketers of My Time, alongside contributions from authors like James Pycroft and Andrew Lang. The book focuses on the great batsmen and bowlers before the advent of round-arm bowling, offering vivid portraits of players like William Beldham and David Harris, and capturing the nostalgia and enthusiasm for cricket’s formative years
