A West Indian batsman and wicketkeeper from 1941 to 1964, he was known as one of the "three Ws" (along with Everton Weekes and Frank Worrell).

He is now chairman of the International Cricket Committee. Full of anecdotes and Walcott's historical scope, this autobiography provides commentary on the way the game has changed internationally over last 50 years.
