Oval Reflections : Memories from the World Famous Sporting Ground

See all formats and editions

No ground in the world can compete with the Oval's illustrious sporting history.

Not just the scene of some of cricket's greatest moments - from the birth of the Ashes to Fred Trueman's 300th wicket - the Oval also hosted the first-ever football and rugby internationals in England, and the first-ever FA Cup Final.

This stunning 240 page coffee table book reflects back on the rich history that has unfolded under the shadow of the world's most famous Gasometer - from Don Bradman's farewell innings to the rock concert by The Who.

Meticulously researched and featuring some of the best sports photographs ever taken, Oval Reflections is a fitting tribute to the past, present and future of 'the people's ground'.
