I actually bought them some years ago after making a comment on the forum. I have a feeling that "Moxey" is the author and I bought direct from him?

"The History of British League Speedway 1946-64" is by Peter Morrish.

Alan Robertson also published a document...very well researched I have to say!

I have the Peter Morrish book, it's great but I just wish he had put in the riders' averages instead of total points for the season. BTW is Peter still with us

Peter is the announcer at Monmore Green for Wolverhampton meetings.  He is a keen follower of Worcestershire County Cricket Club too I believe.

Averages have been included in Alan's publication...I fully recommend obtaining a copy!

Unfortunately Moxey is not responding. Any other ideas?

Also - do you know where I can buy Peter Morrish's book?

 

Thanks

Sorry I really don't know...I guess you sent him a private message?

I haven't a copy of Peter Morrish's book...have you tried ebay? There's a copy available on AbeBooks.

Abebooks is my go-to; I've bought dozens of books from there.

Actually I thought that Peter Morrish had passed away- hope I am wrong.

Peter is currently the announcer at Wolverhampton.

Any details on this? I have both his books from subsequent eras, but can't see anything on line regarding this. Would be very keen  to get a copy if it has averages

It's the same format as his other books, includes Southern Area League and some other competitions like Britannia Shield.
