Praise for The Rebel Tours:
**** – Cricinfo **** – Cricket Web **** – Cricket Fans’ Forum

“That Peter May should write such an accomplished first book is pretty much on par with scoring a century on your Test debut.” – Sports Journalists’ Association
“Gideon Haigh’s seminal work The Cricket War made sure that the game’s literature has a definitive record of WSC. Peter May has done the same for South Africa’s years in the cricketing wilderness.” – Cricket Web
“A well-crafted account….the descriptions of the cricket are excellent.” – Robin Martin-Jenkins, Wisden 2010
“A fascinating book.” – Times Literary Supplement
“May succeeds in making the reader challenge their preconceptions…a fascinating book.” – All Out Cricket ‘Book of the Month’
