Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential sports books of all time, C. L. R. Jamess Beyond a Boundary is—among other things—a pioneering study of popular culture, an analysis of resistance to empire and racism, and a personal reflection on the history of colonialism and its effects in the Caribbean. More than fifty years after the publication of Jamess classic text, the contributors to Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket investigate Beyond a Boundarys production and reception and its implication for debates about sports, gender, aesthetics, race, popular culture, politics, imperialism, and English and Caribbean identity. Including a previously unseen first draft of Beyond a Boundarys conclusion alongside contributions from Jamess key collaborator Selma James and from MichaelBrearley, former captain of the English Test cricket team, Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket provides a thorough and nuanced examination of Jamess groundbreaking work and its lasting impact.
