Winner of the William Hill Sports Book of the Year, this is the
first ever biography of Harold Larwood. Larwood, one of the most
talented, accurate and intimidating fast bowlers of all time is
mainly remembered for his role in the infamous Bodyline series of
1932-3 which brought Anglo-Australian diplomatic relations to the
brink of collapse. Larwood was made the scapegoat - and despite the
fact he was simply following his captain's instructions, he never
played cricket for England again. Devastated by this betrayal, he
eventually emigrated to Australia, where he was accepted by the
country that had once despised him. Acclaimed author Duncan
Hamilton has gained unprecedented access to the late sportsman's
family and archives to tell the story of a true working-class hero
and cricketing legend.
