The Shorter Wisden 2020

Summary

Bloomsbury presents The Shorter Wisden 2020, edited by Lawrence Booth and read by David Thorpe, with Lawrence Booth and Terry Blake. The most famous sports book in the world, Wisden Cricketers' Almanack has been published every year since 1864. The selected writings from the 157th edition contained in this audiobook offer trenchant opinion, compelling features and an authoritative voice on the worldwide game. The Shorter Wisden is a compelling distillation of what's best in its bigger brother – and the 2020 edition of Wisden is crammed, as ever, with the best writing in the game. Wisden's audio version includes the influential Notes by the Editor and all the front-of-book articles. In an age of snap judgments, Wisden’s authority and integrity are more important than ever. Yet again this year’s edition is truly a 'must-have' for every cricket fan. In essence, The Shorter Wisden is a glass of the finest champagne rather than the whole bottle.
