The Ashes: Its All About the Urn: England v. Australia: ultimate cricket rivalry by Graeme Swann

Description

This book takes us through one of world sport’s most engrossing rivalries – From Grace to Sir Don, the most graceful of them all. From the foulest play to the fairest – contrast the 1932-33 Bodyline series affair to the image of Andrew Flintoff hunched over a distraught Brett Lee in 2005. From Ray Illingworth’s famous walk-off in the Seventies, when an England team-mate was assaulted by a spectator, to Steve Waugh’s hugely emotional lap of honour when he retired a quarter of a century later.  384pp
