Harry Pearson, writer


Harry Pearson was born in Great Ayton, North Yorkshire. He has written a weekly sports column in the Guardian newspaper for more years than anyone cares to remember. He has been on the staff of groundbreaking football magazine When Saturday Comes since 1989.  He has written seven books – all published by Little, Brown/Abacus - including The Far Corner (runner-up for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year 1996), Racing Pigs and Giant Marrows (runner up Thomas Cook/Daily Telegraph Travel Book of the Year 1997), A Tall Man In Low Land and Achtung Schweinehund! He lives in rural Northumberland with his partner Catherine, daughter Maisie and a French dog named, Colin - the subject of Hound Dog Days. His latest book Slipless in Settle – A Slow Turn Around Northern Cricket will be published in June 2010. Harry’s favourite insect is the stag beetle.
