Inhaltsangabe

Frank Keating is known for the humour and observation of his award-winning sports contributions to "The Guardian", "The Spectator" and "Punch". In this autobiography he evokes a country childhood in the almost-vanished England of Herefordshire and Gloucestershire; tells raucous tales of the provincial pageant of local journalism; and recounts a crazy decade with Independent Television as a maverick producer, before his love of sport brought him to his "Guardian" column. The book, which was shortlisted for the 1992 William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award, incorporates appraisals of giants of the sports field (Botham and Best) and the press-box (Arlott and Cardus).
