My Autobiography is the warm, candid and often humorous life story of one of cricket’s most respected and recognisable figures, Dickie Bird.
 
From his early life in Barnsley and playing days in county cricket to becoming one of the world’s most admired Test umpires, Bird officiated in some of the game’s most historic matches — including Ashes Tests, World Cup finals and landmark international contests.
 
Renowned for his fairness, distinctive signals and calm authority, Bird became synonymous with integrity in cricket during the 1970s–1990s golden era.
