Critic Reviews
“The joys of the Almanack are the joys of cricket. Its landscape is vast, its minutia endlessly explorable. It is somewhere to escape to.”
Overall, Wisden succeeds again in meeting its challenge, recording meticulously and comprehensively while finding time to breathe and reflect. -- Richard Hobson The Cricketer
It is a book of three parts: comment; record; and delightful minutiae, which always brings the most cheer. -- Mike Atherton The Times
-- Jon Hotten Wisden Cricket Monthly
