This episode Geoff talks to David Woodhouse about his quadruple award-winning book, 'Who Only Cricket Know: Hutton's Men in the West Indies 1953/54'.Held at the London Library in central London it's a wide ranging discussion in which David explains why the MCC tour of that year was a key moment in the history of cricket and society more generally on both sides of the Atlantic. Inspired by CLR James's 'Beyond a Boundary' David explores the way in which the England team embodied the class tensions of post-War Britain and also the way in which racial tension and the struggle for independence was a constant presence in what was billed as a struggle for the title of world champions of cricket.
