Stovold's Mornington Crescent Almanac: 2002 by etc., Graeme Garden (Hardcover, 2001)

As certain as the changing of the seasons, the new edition of Stovold's Almanac heralds the forthcoming season with a review of all things Mornington Crescent over the previous year. The third millennium proves no exception on this account, as the famous muddy-orange volume clocks up another year. Yet the 2002 edition, the 143rd, is something special in that this year's contributions include a retrospective on the career of retired Grand Master Raymond Crabbit. As always this new edition features the usual array of articles, facts, figures, reports and miscellany, all edited in a meticulous but lively manner by Graeme Garden. There is a look back at the 2001 convention in England, and a moving tribute to the late great West Indian Malcolm Herbert Lofthouse the creator of the Camden Corner Triple Play. With such breadth, the appeal is as clear as ever. As a true chronicler of the game, Stovold's has been unequalled for many years. Like its predecessors, the 2002 edition will bring pleasure to Mornington Crescent lovers the world over.
