White Cap and Bails |
|
 | White Cap and Bails follows a different format from Dickie Bird's autobiography. Rather than being a chronology, it is a sort of travelogue, with a chapter devoted to each county followed by similar content regarding international grounds.For each county, Bird gives his best anecdotes about the club, its grounds, and his personal experience with it, both as a player and an umpire.I think the international section is a bit unneccesary, as it does not go into anywhere near the depth of the rest of the book. That would be better suited for another Dickie Bird release.The most remarkable thing about White Cap and Bails is that, for the most part, it avoids repeating the same information from Dickie Bird: My Autobiography.I reccomend this book to anybody who loves cricket. read more.
