Back Cover copy
Dickie Bird is revered through the cricketing world as the game's outstanding and best-loved umpire. The countless amusing stories about him are part of cricket's folklore.
To mark Dickie's retirement from Test match cricket, many of the game's leading personalities tell their favourite story about him in this volume of appreciation, including the Rt.Hon. John Major MP, Geoffrey Boycott, Ray Illingworth, Ted Dexter, Michael Parkinson, Dominic Cork, Fred Trueman and many others.
The son of a Barnsley miner, Harold Dennis Bird, universally known as Dickie, played cricket for Yorkshire and Leicestershire before becoming an umpire in 1970. Up to his retirement from Test cricket last year, he had stood in sixty-six Test matches, a world record. Dickie: A Tribute is an affectionate farewell to a sporting legend.
