Days in the Sun - A Cricketer's Book
Sir John Neville Cardus (1888-1975) was a major English cricket writer known for his lyrical prose and insightful commentary. Rising from humble beginnings, he became the cricket correspondent for The Manchester Guardian in 1919, a position he held until 1940. Cardus' work transcended mere sports journalism; his elegant and witty writing captured the beauty of the game and brought players to life, focusing on their personalities and contributions. A touch of romanticism and nostalgia colored his work, which has inspired generations of cricket writers and remains a cornerstone of cricket literature. While some might find his style dated or biased, his lasting influence on the sport's literary landscape is undeniable.
