Stockwell Press, Abbotsford, Victoria, 1974. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Good. Illustrator: Photographic. 192 pages, indexed, and 29 black-and-white photographs. Colour illustrated dustwrapper. The dustjacket front fold over crease has been split for most of its length. Ownership inscription on front free end page, rubbing of the edges of the dustjacket most noticeable at the head of the spine and the fold over tips.

He writes with colloquial bluntness of his stormy relationship with administrators and selectors, of his on the field clashes with players such as Tony Greig and Rohan Kanhai. A product of Melbourne's tough industrial suburb of Collingwood, he has a directness that never fails to make his meaning plain -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
