Can We Have Our Balls Back, Please?: How The British Invented Sport by Julian Norridge
From the beginnings of 'the beautiful game' - raucous matches of folk football with hundreds of players on each side - to the original bowls - a thin excuse for drunkenness and gambling - Olympic games grew into sports here in Great Britain. Updated for the London 2012 Olympics, this title tells their stories with wit and good humour.
Julian Norridge is an award-winning journalist, BAFTA- and Emmy-nominated programme maker and writer. He lives in Putney. This is his first book.
