Oval Reflections
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'.
