After writing many books that were Benaud giving his opinion on the game, this time he sits down and tells his life story. from growing up as the son of a cricket loving teacher, he also includes stories about why his father decided there would be no more teachers in the Benaud family and an amusing tidbit about how the book got its title.
Very well written easy to read, one expects a lot of a book by Benaud, and this one doesnt disappoint.
