John Lazenby's interest in cricket began with a glimpse of his grandfather's old leather cricket bag stored among the rafters. His curiosity piqued, one day he decided to climb up and explore its contents. The faded blazer, heavy ball and linseed-scented bats exerted a subtle influence on him. This re-emerged decades later when he discovered a box of letters written by his grandfather, the England cricketer J. R. Mason, while on a boat to Australia for the 1897-8 Ashes tour. Inspired by these extraordinary letters, John Lazenby retraces the journey. His tour becomes a cricketing pilgrimage and a voyage of discovery as he passes through Australian cities and remote towns his grandfather visited more than a hundred years ago. During his travels he uncovers a wealth of memorabilia and anecdotes, and his wide-reaching narrative encompasses not only Mason and his team-mates, but also a wider insight into late Victorian mores.

The Test of Time is about two people who meet and fall in love only to face challenges that threaten to pull them apart. Their marriage fails because they didnt start right. They had to learn the right way of loving each other before they finally make it together in life, but in the end, they prove that nothing can separate them, that even death cannot separate them. Theirs was a love that stood the test of time. The book also goes to show that no matter how people wrong you, always be prepared to forgive; there is victory in forgiveness. Reading the book will make you realize, They labour in vain those who build their house without the Lord; that what man cannot get right, God can.
