  In the first of a series of TCCB books this is a survey of England's greatest cricketers, both past and present, their major achievements and personalities brought to life through the writing of top cricket writers, including E.W.Swanton, John Woodcock, Matthew Engel, Don Mosey and Trevor Bailey. There is variety in the critics' impressions. Some look back at names from the distant past; others analyze the top players of their own era; and more recent writers review the great players of today. Many pieces are written from eyewitness experience and others are refelctive assessment sof personal heroes.
