There will never be another Stephen Chalke.
He did wonders for the small independent publisher.
And above all, took cricket writing to another level.
The end of the journey for him and Fairfield Books is indeed a sad news but we must acknowledge what he's done.
*thread ends*
#OnThisDay in 1997,Stephen Chalke's first book was published
With that began the story of Fairfield Books
It changed cricket publishing and apart from his own books, he published books by the likes of David Foot, @BarclayTrout,@antgib,@patmurphybbc
Thread on Chalke and Fairfield.
Such sad news today that cricket's greatest friend Keith van Anderson has passed away. A true gentleman who will be missed at Lord's and at so many other grounds around the world. RIP
