Description
This exciting new autobiography charts legendary broadcaster Sir Michael Parkinson's love of cricket, football and family throughout his life.
Reflecting on his sporting life, he touches on his relationship with the late Shane Warne, who he was the first to interview in long form, and recalls his friendship with the legends of sport. A keen sportsman himself, having played for the Yorkshire seconds and a lifelong Barnsley supporter, this memoir is a love letter to sport, full of heart and humour.
My Sporting Life is an engaging and heartfelt tribute to the games and the people who have meant so much to him. Sir Michael Parkinson's unique perspective and personal anecdotes offer readers an intimate glimpse into the world of sports and its impact on his extraordinary life.

About the Author
Born in Yorkshire, Michael Parkinson left school at sixteen with the ambition to play cricket for Yorkshire and England and to write about cricket for the Manchester Guardian. Although he didn't manage to fulfil the first half of his ambition, he has since become one of the most successful journalists of his generation. He wrote a sports column for The Sunday Times for fifteen years and has also written for the Telegraph. He is a legendary TV and radio presenter - his long-running chat show Parkinson was hugely popular for many years.
