Yorkshire’s 22 Championships 1893–1946 is a substantial and authoritative history of one of the most dominant counties in English cricket. Written by E. L. Roberts, the book chronicles Yorkshire’s remarkable run of County Championship successes from the late 19th century through to the immediate post-war period.
Blending statistical record with narrative history, Roberts captures the evolution of Yorkshire cricket—its players, leadership, and enduring culture of excellence. The volume is further enriched by Yorkshire Profiles from J. M. Kilburn, offering character sketches of many of the county’s legendary figures.
This work is both historical and biographical in nature, providing insight into the personalities and performances that shaped Yorkshire’s dominance. Covering a golden era that includes figures associated with the legacy of Lord Hawke, it stands as an important reference for collectors of county cricket literature and cricket historians alike.
