As well as almost every big name in cricket and football, he has come into contact with many celebrities and world leaders including Margaret Thatcher, John Major and the Princess of Wales. He has written 23 previous books, most famously co-authoring the autobiography of the illusive Brian Lara for Corgi, but he has also written about Dickie Bird, Trevor Brooking, Bobby Robson and Ken Barrington. His books about England Managers and Jim Laker were both nominated for the Sports Book of the Year Prize.
