Peter Doherty Book Launch
Empire, War, Tennis and Me by Peter Doherty is a personal yet unsentimental memoir of sorts. Here, Laureate Professor Peter Doherty unearths the unique history of tennis and nationalism. Doherty identifies the origins of modern tennis within its imperial context and discovers unlikely connections between the game, it's players and national militaries. Doherty personalises this account through discovered letters from his tennis-loving uncles who found connection and meaning.
