The second of two illustrated extravaganzas by PETER TINNISWOOD The Congo Affair
Told by ROBIN BAILEY
Mr Robin Bailey 's magic lantern slide lectures end with an account of the mcc's first and only tour of the Belgian Congo. Wisden's Almanac gives only the sketchiest outline of this landmark in the history of the 20th century.
Tonight we learn the inside story of a tour whose ramifications are felt to this day wherever cricket is played.
