Description of Playing on the Periphery
Investigates why elite English sports - such as rugby and cricket - became national sports in New Zealand and Australia, and asks why working class sports - such as football - have travelled less well to these areas. Focusing on these sports, the author tracks narratives and myths, tracing the passage of colonial truths, behaviours and practices.
