For over half a century, Henry Blofeld has conveyed his unfailing enthusiasm for the game of cricket as a much loved broadcaster and journalist. His characteristically patrician tones, overlaid with those of the bon viveur, have delighted listeners to the BBC's Test Match Special where the personality of the broadcaster comes second only to a deep knowledge of the game and its players. With his engaging conversational tone it is easy to see why listeners feel as if they are actually at the Test match watching in Henry's friendly company.

Now that 'Blowers' has decided to declare his TMS innings closed, his book reveals the secrets of life in the commentary box and of the rich cast of characters with whom he shared it, from the early days of John Arlott and Brian Johnson to Aggers and new boys Boycott, Swann, Vaughan and Tuffers. Henry is equally revealing of his own performances and self-deprecatingly recalls his several verbal misfortunes while live broadcasting.

Like the greatest commentators and writers on the game Blofeld has always understood that there is a world beyond the cricket field. Not forgetting pigeons passing, red buses and much loved cricket grounds, Henry Blofeld writes of his favourite countries, and experiences while travelling, and meeting and interviewing many cricket-loving celebrities. His passionate and entertaining book will become one of the classics of cricket's literature.©2017 Henry Blofeld Cricket Entertainment & Performing Arts Sports Şöhret Eğlence

Having listened to squeeze the orange - Henry Blofeld’s biography I wondered if his new book would hold anything new about his like in cricket or simply be a rehash of classic but told before tales. I plumped to listen just to hear that extraordinary voice once more and was so glad I did. Not only are 5he tales told in a way only he could tell them, there were so many new or enhanced stories that I need not have worried before my purchase. Filled with fun, facts and fantastic insights into not just his own but many other colourful cricket loving characters you really feel like you have been a companion in the commentary box for the last 50 years with the great man. I cannot recommend this as a worthy successor to squeeze the orange highly enough. Buy it and you will be entertained for hours!

Blowers back again!

A truly one of kind commentator who will never be rivalled. Had the pleasure of meeting him and seeing one of his shows a few months back. The book is just as good
