It’s thrill and Ted’s excellent adventure…one which chronicles his rich and varied years.
An excellent book and certainly leaves its reader with a good understanding of the way Ted Dexter thinks. It is highly recommended.

A book that needs to be savoured—delightful anecdotes, a life-time of cricket wisdom and astute insights of a 85-year-old former great who remains keen and sharp as ever
A good innings. Dexter has enjoyed the good life, with plenty of champagne and fun.
