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 & also the whitewash defeat of 2013-14 when its intensity ended his international career.

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, 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.
