Yayınlanma tarihi: Oca 07, 1987

'There's no literary phenomenon quite like it - it's an accidental social history of England.' Every spring as the daffodils fade, another splash of yellow arrives; Wisden Cricketers' Almanack. It's as much a part of the new cricket season as the smell of bat oil and newly-mown grass. For 123 years Wisden, alone, has recorded the minutiae of this essentially English game. Reporter James Hogg , together with John Arlott , Benny Green and many other dedicated followers of the summer sport pay tribute to a unique sporting institution.
