Snooker is a British success story. It began as a working-class game and grew into a multi-million pound professional sport, exported to the world. In this new book, David Hendon shows how the fortunes of snooker have mirrored wider changes in British society. He weaves the big picture with the personal stories of snooker’s stars - like Alex Higgins, Jimmy White, and Ronnie O’Sullivan. If you’ve ever picked up a cue or watched a perfect 147 break, this book is for you.
David will be in conversation with snooker journalist Phil Haigh.
