Lancashire Hotch-Potch

Enjoy this dip into Lancashire's colourful history and some memorable England Tests (Copies signed by the author).

Foreword by David Lloyd
'I've never been a big reader of books, let alone cricket books... and I have hundreds!
I collect 'em but don't read 'em.

But I do like picture books. As a lad I used to read comics... Topper, Beazer, Dandy, Beano ... I liked to chuckle at the characters.

Bob's book caught my attention.

I'm a lifelong Lancs lad... played a bit, coached a bit, talked a bit. The characters he portrays are exactly as I saw them.... True Lancastrians, and all with different characters and characteristics.
I'm back to my comics. Bob's book made me chuckle. Memories, poignancy, nostalgia and fun.

What more do you want! Dig in!
David Lloyd

Lancashire Hotch-Potch is a collection of Bob Bond's drawings on cricket, particularly Lancashire cricket. It also includes some famous Test match moments at Old Trafford and elsewhere.

As Bob himself says: 'It's not really a book of statistics, although you might find the occasional batting average or bowling analysis has crept in unawares. But if you want stats, then go to your nearest bookstore and purchase a complete set of Wisden Cricketers' Almanacks. You should get them reasonably cheaply, as they are very old and almost certainly second-hand.'

Nearly all of the events depicted are from before the Millennium, and this dip into Lancashire's colourful history will undoubtedly jog a few memories........
