"This verdict is shared across a surprising spectrum of cricket opinion. Even Ian Chappell agrees: 'A Test match is like a painting. There's time for artistry and it requires a lot of hard work, thought and patience ... a limitedovers international is like a Rolf Harris painting.' Engel's predecessor at Wisden, Graeme Wright, compared the appeal of the oneday game to fast food. 'Most children will eat hamburgers and chips in prefere ..."

The gun-toting Ray's romantically reactionary view of the South and the Civil War is set against Dave Van Ronk's “Marxist view” that “it was one big battle between two rival economic systems.” In Chronicles there's scarcely more than a passing reference ..."
