Among the cast of characters who feature in Botham's own Who's Who of cricket are many of the world's top past and present players, cricketers such as Viv Richards, Brian Close, Shane Warne and Nasser Hussain. Umpire Dickie Bird and the late John Arlott also have a place in Beefy's Hall of Fame. Others associated with cricket include Mick Jagger, Nelson Mandela and Nick Faldo; and many more who in Beefy's opinion have been a positive influence in the game during his era. Witty, entertaining and controversial, these portraits have already incited a plethora of opinions from those both inside and outside the game. This paperback edition is sure to be another Botham bestseller.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'An Enjoyable offering' The Sunday Times</p><p>'An inventive concept in sports books' Publishing News</p><p>'I would back this readable pardbacked Hello! to rattle the Christmas cash-tills' Wisden Cricket Monthly</p><p>'It does make a great read' Yorkshire Evening Post</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Ian Botham was the most thrilling sight in sport for nearly two decades at the top of international cricket.
