Cricketing legend Jimmy Anderson coming to Lancaster

England cricket legend Jimmy Anderson will be in Lancaster next week, signing copies of his new book.

The fast bowler will be at Waterstones in Marketgate next Tuesday (November 12), to sign copies of his autobiography, ‘Finding The Edge.’

One of the true cricketing greats, Jimmy Anderson recounts in his autobiography his truly remarkable story - from his early career at Lancashire to success with England and a quartet of stunning Ashes victories.

Jimmy Anderson’s Test career spanned 21 years, and after making his international debut in 2003, took 704 Test wickets in 188 matches, and stands third in the all time list of most career wickets in Test matches.

Jimmy will be signing copies in store on the day from 12.30pm, and entrance to the signing queue is by ticket only.

There will be no posed photography, but Waterstone’s staff will take photos for you as you are chatting with James & getting your book signed.

The book is the final word on a spectacular career spanning over 20 years from one of England's greatest ever bowlers.

A story of dedication and resilience, Jimmy gives his unfiltered take on his experiences coming of age as a 15- year-old playing for Burnley Cricket Club, the astronomic ascent to making his international debut at twenty years old and every astonishing moment in the 21 years since.

Told with the honesty, humility and dry humour that have made the public fall in love with Jimmy, this is the book that reveals it all.

Celebrating the soaring highs: facing international greats such as Ricky Ponting and Sachin Tendulkar and winning the Ashes four times. Reflecting on the tough lows: crushing defeats and the shock of being dropped.

Finally, his resurgence under Brendon McCullum to close out his career with his 700th wicket, all alongside his teammates and lifelong friends on the England team. This is a no-holds-barred tell-all of one of the most extraordinary cricket careers of all time.
