This page summarises the entries in [[:category:Cricket historians and writers]].

This is a '''bibliography of literary and historical works about [[cricket]]'''. The list is sorted by author's name. It is inevitably highly selective. The 1984 edition of [[E. W. Padwick]]'s ''A Bibliography of Cricket'' (see below) had more than 10,000 entries.
