Description

Harold Larwood's account of the 1932-33 Ashes cricket series is a detailed and annotated record of one of the most infamous periods in cricket history.

The Bodyline Affair, as it came to be known, was a controversy that threatened to tear the sport apart, with Larwood at its centre. This book provides a unique insight into the events leading up to the crisis and its aftermath, featuring full scores and photographs from Larwood's own collection.

Written by one of cricket's greatest fast bowlers, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in the sport's history, when Larwood's actions had far-reaching consequences for the game and its relationships with other countries.
