Description

Martin Crowe: Tortured Genius- Joseph Romanos. "Tortured Genius is an objective look at the story behind one of New Zealand's most prominent and controversial sporting personalities: Martin Crowe. Award winning sports journalist Joseph Romanos traces the Crowe story from his beginnings as a cricketer in the backyard to the international arena. As a schoolboy prodigy Crowe was elevated to first class cricket at the age of 17, and soon after was propelled into his first test series. Floundering, and isolated from his peers, the struggle to fulfil his potential and become one of the world's best batsman had begun... Crowe's performance is rated against New Zealand and world cricketing history, and statistics from Peter Marriott have been compiled especially for this biography. Superb photos capture the glorious moments, and the times that may be best forgotten, many from private collections and previously unpublished." Jackets creases on the edges from use and a long Xmas inscription on the inside front page - but overall tidy.
