Harold Larwood's controversial version of the Bodyline cricket furore, with a foreword by Douglas Jardine, his skipper on the tour.

Small 8vo. 220pp. Portrait frontis. (Larwood), 6 plates, 3 diags. Contained within the original, very rare dust-wrapper, which is rubbed and chipped to edges with a further small piece missing to back cover. Light foxing to front and back flaps and some old tape marks to fore-edge. Having said that it is still one of the best dust-wrappers for this book that we have come across. A piece very nicely signed by Larwood in ink has been laid down to title-page.
