Book Description
Excerpt from The Memorial Biography of Dr. W. G. Grace Although it falls to my lot to Open the innings of the great side that has been gathered to do justice to the Champion's memory, as generally happens the Introduction is the very last portion of the book to be written. Therefore it seems to me that everything has been stated, and yet it behoves me to contribute my Share when others have so generously given Of their best. Ever Since I can remember, cricket was my greatest hobby, and looking back to my earliest boyhood it seems to me that cricket and Grace were synonymous. For nobody ever spoke Of cricket without alluding to W. G. He symbolized cricket for every one who began to play after he became champion. He even attracted many to watch him who under no other circumstances would have thought of witnessing a match.
