Manley brings an amateur's enthusiasm and scholarly heft to this thick study, strongly influenced by C.L.R. James's *Beyond A Boundary* of the history of the West Indies cricket team from its beginnings to the 1980s. This is a book no Caribbeanist, and no lover of West Indies cricket should be without.

Manley's second significant political essay.
