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 everwhile 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 allusionsamong those who venerated cardus were pg wodehouse, john arlott, harold pinter, jb priestley and don bradmanbetween two world wars, he became the laureate of cricket by doing the same with wordsthis is writing every bit the equal of cardus himselfinfatuations with younger women ran parallel to a decidedly unromantic marriagedaily mail 'hamilton is a worthy biographeryet cardus also belied his impoverished origins to prosper in a second class-conscious profession, becoming a music critic of international renownand, astonishingly, the supreme stylist's aversion to factual accuracy led to his reporting on matches he never attended' guardian neville cardus described how one majestic stroke-maker 'made music' and 'spread beauty' with his batsee oxfam website for delivery information read moreduncan 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 writinghowever, 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 education' 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 writeras much sublime writing comes from his keyboard as from cardus's pen
