Book SynopsisTrade Review`Alan was an excellent county cricketer ... He may be Cardiff born and Cardiff bred but, in a broadcasting sense, Alan is `a citizen of the world'.' Tony Lewis; `Easier Said Than Done reads the same way as our chats, so enjoy the book in the same way as I am fortunate to enjoy his friendship - with a warm smile!' Vijay Amritraj; `Alan Wilkins has to be the nicest man in broadcasting. There is nobody who is so gentle, so kind, so generous with his time and someone who laughs at himself as much as Wilko does.' Sunil Gavaskar; `Alan epitomises what sport is all about.' Clive Lloyd
