Description
In Australia 63, acclaimed cricket writer Alan Ross delivers a vivid, firsthand account of England's 1962–63 Ashes tour of Australia. Blending travelogue with sports journalism, Ross captures not only the tension and triumphs of the Test matches but also the character of postwar Australia as seen through the eyes of a visiting Englishman. Known for his poetic style and sharp observation, Ross offers readers a rich and insightful commentary on cricket, competition, and culture.

This is a must-have for cricket fans, especially collectors of Ashes history or vintage sporting commentary. Ross's elegant prose and keen eye for atmosphere elevate this from a simple match record to a literary sports classic.
