Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR, IN BLUE PEN, ON TITLE PAGE 'To Jonathan, 30 Not Out!! Happy Birthday, David Shepherd'. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, small creased closed tear to…bottom front corner, some slight yellowing to page block, not price clipped (£18.99), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 242pp, illustrated. David Shepherd (1940-2009), helped his brother run a village post office in Devon. He got up before six o'clock every day and walked around the village with his trolley delivering the village's newspapers. He was also the world's most senior and respected cricketing umpire. For more than 20 years he umpired tests, county games and one day matches everywhere from Trinidad to Glamorgan, from Essex to Melbourne. He gave Geoff Boycott out, resisted appeals from Curtley Ambrose, dodged straight drives from Sachin Tendulkar, calmed down Shane Warne and signalled leg byes in his own uniquely elegant and famous style. His experience of umpiring spanned three decades, the list of players he has umpired, known and counted as friends reads like a cricketing Who's Who, his knowledge of the game and his expertise was unrivalled. And he was held in rare esteem and affection by virtually everyone involved in cricket. Beginning with an evocative account of Shepherd's North Devon childhood, the book covers his career beginning with playing for Devon in the minor Counties League before joining Gloucester in 1965. He retired in 1979 and became an umpire the following year. His time as an umpire has seen cricket become dominated by money, the introduction of floodlit games and of the controversial electronic 'third umpire', video evidence and worldwide match fixing scandals. The book contains informed and trenchant opinions on all these aspects of cricket, past, present and future as well as a wealth of fascinating and amusing anecdotes from a man who has stayed at the centre of the game for nearly forty years, never losing his love of the game or his sense of humour. Sadly, he died of lung cancer at his home in Devon in 2009 and Australian cricketer and commentator Richie Benaud died in 2015 of skin cancer. Invaluable for all cricket fans. Scarce signed. Jacket by David Munden (illustratore). Signed by Author(s).
