From Word of Sport:

An engaging biography of one of English cricket's pioneers. Monty Bowden was the best schoolboy batsman in England before becoming a priviliged amateur and carefree batsman in Surrey's championship-winning side. The book traces his early career and his ground-breaking 1889 tour to South Africa.
His enjoyment of South Africa was such that he stayed on conclusion of the Tour and went on to represent Transvaal in South African first class cricket.

It's A Fact!

Yeovil Town F.C. have always been a name to be feared in the F.A Cup and are the most prolific 'Giantkillers' knocking out a record 20 League teams during their time as a Non-League club.
