Dr Michael Collins (UCL History) has been gathering numerous oral histories as part of his Windrush Cricket Project at UCL since 2020. He plans to publish some of these within his forthcoming book, Windrush Cricket: Caribbean migration and the remaking of post-war England.
Dr Collins said: “A single book can only incorporate a fraction of the histories of migration and settlement in which cricket and cricket clubs were a very significant and arguably under-recognised element of postwar black British history. There are so many more stories out there.”
