This anthology of my father’s work is mainly comprised of articles, editor’s notes, short biographical sketches, and tributes written for or during his tenure as editor of the Journal of the Cricket Society. Unashamedly, it is a miscellany of writings; his "notes" which read like a commentary on the state of cricket between 1970 and 1984, and a tour de force of an eclectic, ever-curious mind focused on the abiding passion of his life - the summer game.

"'Devon Cricket' is a collection of my father's writings on the subject. His mother was a Devonian by birth, from a family with deep roots in the West Country and he had always been keenly interested in the cricket of the county. He may have planned to write a history of Devon Cricket but as with so many things in life, he never got around to it. Some years ago this Editor very nearly picked up the cudgels and began to plan for a 'proper history'; but again, it did not happen and besides, Devon Cricket was always close to my father's heart. His words say it best!
