Summary

In this first comprehensive account of Britain's place in world tennis from the 1880s to the present day, historian Kevin Jefferys shows that - contrary to popular perception - Britain has a surprisingly strong record. He examines the nation's fluctuating tennis fortunes and presents his personal selection of the best British players of all time.

Author Biography

Kevin Jefferys is the author of a dozen books on modern British social and political history, including Sport and Politics in Modern Britain: The Road to 2012. Since retiring from his academic post he has specialized in the history of tennis.
