 ...and Nothing but the Truth? (Paperback) by Deon Gouws This volume details the scandal that rocked the foundations of South African cricket. It offers a presentation of the facts as exposed to public scrutiny, combined with interviews and analysis. How did we miss the warning signs? Are the administrators of the game blameless? Will they go far enough to uncover the truth? Most importantly, has Hansie Cronje told the whole truth? These are some of the issues raised in this book, along with a discussion on international instances of spread betting and match-fixing. Controversial analysis is presented of Cronje's performance on the pitch before and after known contact with book makers. The book confronts the question of what compelled Hansie Cronje to do what he did, and offers insight into the man, idolized by a sports-loving nation, who fell from glory.  

Editor: Gideon Haigh Publisher: Aurum Press (2006) ISBN-10: 1845131630 ISBN-13: 9781845131630 Condition: Very Good. A few small marks on the endpapers and the outside edges of the pages. The DJ is rubbed and marked with light wear to the edges.  Binding: Hardcover with dust jacket Pages: 148 Dimensions: 18.4 x 12.2 x 1.7 cm +++ Edited by Gideon Haigh +++ In 2005, Aurum republished with success, J.L. Carr's miniature and classic Dictionary of Extra-Ordinary Cricketers  - the book reprinted within a few months. Now, in its first collaboration with John Wisden Co, publishers of the celebrated annual Wisden Cricketers' Almanack, it publishes a similarly eccentric gallery of quixotic and eccentric cricketers, edited by acclaimed cricket writer Gideon Haigh. But where readers of J.L. Carr were never quite sure whether the author had somehow embellished - or even completely invented - the facts about the cricketers he anthologised, the esoteric details and mad whimsies recorded in these obituaries are exactly as they appeared in the august pages of the Almanack itself.
