Graeme Swann leads us on a compelling adventure through one of world sport's most engrossing rivalries. He knows as much as anybody about the heat of England v Australia battles, having played in three series wins and also the whitewash defeat of 2013-14 when its intensity ended his international career. However, it brought out some of his best displays in Test cricket. But he is just one of dozens of colourful characters to have added their chapters to this great tome. The mock obituary of English cricket in the Sporting Times of 1882 was the forerunner of summers and winters of heaven and hell, depending on which side of the divide you were situated. When it comes to on-field relations nothing quite compares to the over-my-dead-body feel of the Ashes. 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. Swann's book will reveal the magic of a series that first gripped him in his front room in Northampton as an aspiring spin bowler in the mid-1980s.

Australia v England.The Legendary urn. Grace, Bradman, Warne, Bodyline and the World Series breakaway . . . The touchstones of the Ashes loom large in the consciousness of two proud and competitive nations. This book joins the dots in a comprehensive account of the Ashes tests, from their informal beginnings in the 1860s to the already legendary Australian 5-0 reclamtion of 2007. The Ashes reviews each decade with a feast of lively anecdotes and fascinating eyewitness accounts, highlighting legends of the game from Hobbs to Lillee, as well as those unfortunately (or best) forgotten. Packed with argument-busting statistics and handsomely illustrated, this definitive volume tracks the development of cricket's ultimate contest from a money-making exercise to one of the world's most enduring and feisty sporting rivalries.
