Larwood fast into best book contest
The competition, run by The Cricket Society since 1970 and in partnership with MCC since 2009, is for books nominated by members and not publishers and is highly regarded by writers and publishers. The competition seeks to reward writers who document their sport passionately and show incredible talent; a practise carried over through many new mediums and about new sports and hobbies such as foxy bingo online (http://www.foxybingo.com/
) and older, more distinguished sports, such as cricket. Previous winners have included Mike Brearley, EW Swanton and David Frith. Three years ago the delighted winner - Scyld Berry – this year a keynote speaker at the award ceremony - hailed his award as "cricket’s seal of literary approval."
