| John Cleary, the current League President, and Jim Carnegie, a former Middleton (now Thornham) cricketer have each written a book which may be of interest to League Members and other cricket lovers: - | |
| A Class Innings by John Cleary | |
| "A Schoolteacher of vision, a cricket lover, with a host of tales to tell and an entrepreneur keeping a closely-guarded secret, John Cleary has lived a full and entertaining life. In his absorbing autobiography, let him take you through a story packed with personal achievement and larger-than-life characters." | |
| - Test-match umpire John Holder | |
| "Few people are lucky enough to enjoy a life so rich and fulfilling as John. Let him share his exploits with you in this thoroughly entertaining account" | |
| - Keith McHugh, Oldham Evening Chronicle | |
| The book is available for £9.95 from books@madeleinelindley.com or from Amazon. | |
| In a Different League by Jim Carnegie | |
| A collection of fresh, amusing stories gathered over 50 years of playing all over England. | |
| Jim highlights cricket's north-south divide by comparing the timed, friendly games he sauntered through in and around London in the 1960s and 70s with the somewhat more combative league battles fought out in Yorkshire and Lancashire since then. Their atmosphere has as much in common as Botham has with Boycott or Eton has with Heywood. | |
| To order your copy of the book (RRP £9.99) you can ring Jim Carnegie on 0161 643 3923 or email him at jmcarnegie@yahoo.co.uk. From 30 September the book is also available from Amazon. | |
