E. W. Swanton: A Celebration of His Life

David Rayvern Allen

When E.W. (Jim) Swanton died in January 2000 at the age of 92, the tributes poured in from cricket lovers everywhere; among them John Major, who described him as one of the great cricket writers of the century. For over seventy years, from the age of Bradman, Jim Swanton described all the great cricket occasions; his immense knowledge and sharp judgement made him a legend.
