W. G. Grace was 'The Great Cricketer'. It says so on his Memorial Gates at Lord's. And although in the 100 years since his death there have been countless other great cricketers, he remains secure in his absolute supremacy: a Victorian GP from Bristol whose achievements and celebrity made the developing game into the country's national sport and obsession; an amateur sportsman who with professional ruthlessness enjoyed an amazingly distinguished career, creating records which are unlikely ever to be beaten; a figure whose long beard and ample girth in later years made him one of the most recognisable Englishmen of all time. Unsurprisingly no other cricketer in the history of the game has had so many books written about him as W. G. But this is a book with a difference. For it combines a quest to unravel the main reasons for his enduring fame with a search around the country for what tangible remains may be found today of the various phases of Grace's distinguished life. This lavishly illustrated 'archaeological' approach offers many new insights into one of the greatest sportsmen the country has ever known.
