Montague Alfred Noble (1874-1940) played 42 Tests for Australia, 15 of which he was captain between 1903 and 1909. Between his first Test in January 1898 and his last in August 1909, he scored 1,997 runs at 30.25 and took 121 wickets at 25.00.

This book is a recollection of his career in the game and includes an important chapter on what made Victor Trumper such a batting genius.
