Amateurs versus professionals - a social history and memoir of English cricket from 1953 to 1963.
Charles Williams, Lord Williams of Elvel, former industrialist and banker and now a Labour peer, was appointed to a life peerage in 1985. He served on the Opposition front bench from 1986 onwards and was elected Opposition Deputy Leader in 1989. He is one of Britain's most distinguished biographers.
A book about amateur versus professional cricketers is also a
social history of the country, so Williams' amusing book, focusing
on the final 10 years of the amateur game, is revealing not only
about cricket but also about the people and communities who play
it.
