An account of the 1932-33 Bodyline cricket series. Bodyline, also known as fast leg theory bowling, was a cricketing tactic devised by the English cricket team for their 1932-33 Ashes tour of Australia, created to combat the extraordinary batting skill of Australia's Don Bradman. A bodyline delivery was one in which the cricket ball was bowled, at pace, at the body of the batsman in the expectation that when he defended himself with his bat a resulting deflection could be caught by one of several fielders standing close by on the leg side.

Paperback octavo, very good condition, black & white text-photos & drawings, few light impressions front cover, minor edgewear. 293 pp. Edward Docker writes about 'furphies': tall stories, unsubstantiated rumours and mistaken or half-understood notions (including of events overseas), which have always abounded in Australian and Pacific history. The Furphy water-carts passed through the streets of Shepparton in Victoria in the year 1900 to assist farmers in time of drought. Fourteen years later when World War 1 broke out a new task was supplying water to troops awaiting despatch to battlefields overseas. Hence the name 'furphy' for some of the tall stories the drivers of such carts passed onto these volunteer soldiers in lieu of more reliable information.

Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Raymond Dart was born above his father's fruit shop in Queensland but went from these humble beginnings to become one of the most groundbreaking palaeontologists of the Twentieth Century. Mostly ignored in his own country, Dart's excavations and discoveries in Africa not only filled in the gaps of how human beings evolved but vindicated many of Darwin's theories regarding that process. He discovered Australopithecus and posited the notion of a "cousin species" to Homo sapiens, igniting debate about whether or not human violent tendencies stem from territorial aggression between these races. This book resolves the oversight of Dart by his national peers, placing him back firmly amongst the giants of evolutionary science.
