SHORTLISTED FOR THE MCC / CRICKET SOCIETY BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD
George Hirst, Schofield Haigh, and Wilfred Rhodes were known as "The Triumvirate." They were inseparable pals off the field and a devastating combination on it, helping to turn Yorkshire into the greatest county cricket team of the early 20th century. George Herbert Hirst was one of the most popular sportsmen of his era, his brilliance with bat and ball matched by the warmth of his personality. Schofield Haigh was the greatest wet wicket bowler of his time, his flow of cheery wisecracks masking insecurities about his form and fitness. Wilfred Rhodes was quiet and watchful, his analytical brain marking him out as the Sherlock Holmes of the summer game. Together, they left a legacy of great deeds, good humor, and decency: gentle men from a gentler time.
