The booklet captures an important era in cricket history — the final decade before the professional revolution brought by World Series Cricket in the late 1970s.
 
The 1968–69 series was played during a golden era for West Indies cricket under Garfield Sobers, whose all-round brilliance made him one of the most celebrated figures in the game.
