It Just Isn't Cricket Cecil Johnson

This little book continues the story of the Lizzie, a tiny community around the site of the old coal mine of the same name in a corner of North West Durham. Its original stalwarts have long since gone, but, as a native of this village, I like to think that their spirit and resilience live on. Perhaps the indulgent reader would care to take this small volume in conjunction with one of my earlier offerings, "The Sum of Two Squares", thereby acquiring a fuller picture of this little mining community of years gone by.
