Despite all the words written about him, Sir Donald Bradman has long been something of an enigma. A prisoner of his own fame, he valued his privacy more than anything else, yet as a point of honour answered every letter he received. Only after his death could his diverse friends and colleagues feel free to share their personal reminiscences of the world's greatest batsman. In his life both within and beyond cricket, Bradman's foibles and obsessive pursuit of perfection are revealed, as well as his private moments seemingly at odds with his public persona.
