MEDIA REVIEWS
The 2011 edition of Wisden Cricketers' Almanack is likely to end up as well read and well thumbed as my 1982 edition.
Why? Because it records in its usual wonderful detail the events of an awesome Ashes Series as England, glory be, won in style in Australia. * East Anglian Daily Times (East) *
"For the first time in its history, Wisden gives proper recognition to the photographer's art, with Scott Barbour winning the inaugural Wisden-MCC Photograph of the Year award." * Rajesh Kumar *
"This richly filled edition of Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 2011 holds many pleasures to be savoured and maintains the exemplary standards of a publication of high repute...This is a lavish production worth every penny for its 1650 pages. Everything about it is right - the layout and the clear font. The text is adorned with some outstanding coloured photographs." * The Cricket Statistician (June 2011) *
The famous yellow-covered almanack, first published in 1864, is a glorious adjunct to a glorious game, and no sporting bookshelf is complete without it. -- Max Davidson * Daily Telegraph (Oct 12th 2011) *
Since it launched in 1864 cricket bible Wisden has been a bastion of the English game. * Western Daily Press (Oct 11th 2011) *
