As well as answering these questions, this book charts
cricket’s development in Norfolk from its original ad hoc existence to the
structured and organised form of the 21st century. It also records the ups
and downs of the County Club and visits of overseas teams to Norfolk, and
there is a chapter on Norfolk’s best known cricketing family.
Published in paperback, with 336 pages, 38 photographs
and a comprehensive set of County Club statistics.
