The great romantic uncovers the dark enigma within a golden agein the great romantic, award-winning author duncan hamilton demonstrates how cardus changed sports journalism for ever' the times'with its verve, insight and generosity of sympathy, this is by some way the best full-length life of a cricket writer, perhaps even of any sports writer' guardian neville cardus described how one majestic stroke-maker 'made music' and 'spread beauty' with his batyet cardus also belied his impoverished origins to prosper in a second class-conscious profession, becoming a music critic of international renowndaily mail 'hamilton is a worthy biographerand, astonishingly, the supreme stylist's aversion to factual accuracy led to his reporting on matches he never attendedthis is writing every bit the equal of cardus himselfamong those who venerated cardus were pg wodehouse, john arlott, harold pinter, jb priestley and don bradmansee oxfam website for delivery information read moreinfatuations with younger women ran parallel to a decidedly unromantic marriagebetween two world wars, he became the laureate of cricket by doing the same with wordswhile popularising cricket - while appealing, in cardus' words to people who 'didn't know a leg-break from the pavilion cat at lord's'- he became a star in his own right with exquisite phrase-making, disdain for statistics and a penchant for literary and musical allusionshowever, behind the rhapsody in blue skies, green grass and colourful characters, this richly evocative biography finds that cardus' mother was a prostitute, he never knew his father and he received negligible educationas much sublime writing comes from his keyboard as from cardus's penduncan hamilton is already a multiple award-winning sports writer, but it is hard to imagine he will write a better book than this superb, elegiac portrait of the sociable, feted, but ultimately unknowable, man who virtually invented modern sports writing
