Abstract
THE golfing world already owes a debt of gratitude to Mr. Beldam for his “Great Golfers.”This companion volume, setting forth on the same lines the styles of play of our greatest cricketers, cannot fail to appeal strongly to all lovers of the most English of our national games. The method adopted here is identical with that of the earlier book. Each of the many batsmen pictured has been photographed in one or more characteristic attitudes before, during, or after the striking of the ball, and after a careful study of every picture Mr. Fry has set down his own interpretation for the guidance of the reader. No better guide could have been got, for among the great cricketers of our day Mr. Fry stands conspicuous as one who has studied the art of cricket with phenomenal success.
