Hand-in-Hand: History of Cricket in Guyana, 1865-1897 : Volume 1: The Foundation

This is the first volume of a major study of the social history of cricket in Guyana from 1865 to 1966, when the country became independent.

It is a legacy project to mark the 150th anniversary of one of the great institutions in the region, the Hand-in-Hand Fire Insurance Company.

The year 2015 is also the 150th anniversary of first-class cricket in the West Indies: Barbados v British Guiana in February 1865.
