Publishers Description: Lovingly written by the voice of Wimbledon, John Barrett, this sumptuous tome traces the fascinating story of The All England Tennis Club, and The Championships it started in 1877 in order to generate funds to purchase a new Pony Roller. From the days where Gentlemen played in long stockings and Ladies wore long dresses with Whalebone Stays, through the wars, into the Open Era and on to the current crop of world-class athletes competing under a retractable roof, the book takes readers on a richly detailed and beautifully illustrated journey through time.
