This is a fascinating story of the formation, development and playing of the cricket club competition in Perth, which was the foundation for the creation of the Western Australian Cricket Association in 1885. Through many trials and tribulations, the competition survived and prospered, becoming recognised as one of the strongest club competitions in the world in the 1960s and 1970s.

It tells, in great detail, the stories of its milestones and the famous people who played in and administered the competition, and provides an in-depth history of its constituent clubs throughout its long history, along with a retinue of statistics to delight the most avid cricket enthusiasts.
