Cricket: Beyond a Boundary remembered fifty years on

Half a century after the publication of one of the great books about sport, C.L.R. James' Beyond a Boundary, his wife Selma, a respected author, has written a piece in The Guardian remembering the book's writing and its impact. Beyond a Boundary is not just about cricket, it is about culture, history and society and how they are inextricably entangled with the game. It is essential reading, not only for fans of cricket, but for anyone interested in the role that sport can play in national identity and culture.
