Bouch: Through My Eyes
‘I lost sight, but gained vision.’ says Mark Boucher
• The flying bail of a stump punctured his left eye on a cricket pitch in England, but Mark Boucher’s gritty determination has carried him through. • This 260-page book traces his remarkable sporting prowess, his strength in other sports codes, his decision to concentrate on cricket and his career on the national team, rising to Player of the Year in 1998, 2000 and 2006.• It’s packed with behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes, with scenes of defeat, victory and the strong bonds forged between players. • A great book to recommend as a festive gift.
