Master cricket writer Gideon High takes readers through more than a century of cricket in his new book On the Ashes.
From W.G. Grace to Don Bradman, from Bodyline to Laker's Match, from Botham's miracle at Headingley to the phenomena of today's Ashes captains Patrick Cummins and Ben Stokes, Haigh captures more than 150 years of Anglo-Australian cricket.
Nothing compares to the Asheswhere hope, expectation, magic and chagrin flourish in equal measure.
He brings together an enduring vision of this timeless contest between
Australia and England - the world's oldest sporting rivalry - from the colonial era to the present. Haigh was just eight when he attended his first Ashes Test, and was 24 when he reported his first Ashes series. He has written more than 30 books, including the best-selling On Warne.
