Review:
"* 'A great read' - BBC Sports * 'He conveys the strange, but palpable excitement of research - he drops in on a close-season Lord's, beautifully evoked as a great ship in dry dock' - Times Literary Supplement * 'A celebration of cricket, a unique personal history and an evocative portrait of a bygone era.' - History Today * 'Test of Time will be gold dust to cricket lovers, but it can reach a far wider audience' - David Reynolds, author of Swan River * 'All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable read and highly recommended.' - 334NotOut.com"
