Never a Dull Moment: Memoirs of Arthur Marshall

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Small mark on tail foredge. Interior and binding are also very good.

Those who remember Arthur Marshall as an international tennis player and outstanding sports teacher are spot on. But there was much more to him: league footballer in a top team and outstanding performer in squash, cricket, table tennis, golf and lawn bowls.

And that’s just the sport. Well, even that isn’t the end of his sports story: he also became a highly respected sports journalist in both print and broadcast media. Surely that’s enough, Arthur. But no: he went on to become a state parliamentarian with a strong record of achievement.

In these memoirs, Marshall tells engaging and often amusing stories of his multifarious exploits from childhood on, not the least of them an extended account of his two adventurous years on the international tennis circuit. Never a Dull Moment will confirm Arthur Marshall’s standing as a Western Australian of considerable substance. (back cover)

He passed away in 2018.
