Second Innings | The Revival of Lancashire Cricket offers a detailed and contemporary account of the post-war revival of Lancashire cricket, capturing a pivotal moment in English county cricket history following the disruption of World War II.
Written shortly after the WWII, the book provides valuable first-hand insight into the rebuilding of Lancashire County Cricket Club—covering administration, players, fixtures, and the broader cultural significance of cricket’s return to normalcy.
Works of this nature—regional, early post-war cricket publications—are increasingly sought after for their historical immediacy and limited print runs, particularly those not widely distributed beyond local audiences.
