Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Part biography, part personal reflection and part investigation, Chasing Shadows: The Life And Death Of Peter Roebuck will celebrate Roebucks immense achievements as a player, captain, writer, broadcaster and philanthropist, but not shy away from the controversies that plagued his life and hang so darkly and with such uncertainty over his shocking death. Initial investigations have already uncovered details previously unknown to the public, while some of the cricket world's giant figures have volunteered due praise - and criticism - for this remarkable figure. Tim Lane and co-author Elliot Cartledge will explore the `Roebuck phenomenon, how this seemingly awkward and eccentric intellectual giant became, briefly, an English cricket captain, was embroiled in a long-standing feud with the likes of Ian Botham and Viv Richards, gained adulation throughout the sub-continent and Australasia and established what was essentially a homespun charity to put scores of impoverished Africans through secondary schooling and university. Along with the recollections and revelations of colleague and confidante Tim Lane, the book will feature in its telling the likes of Ian Botham, Viv Richards, Ian Chappell, Mark Nicholas, Steve Waugh, Rahul Dravid, Ricky Ponting, Kerry OKeefe, Martin Crowe, Mike Coward, Jim Maxwell and many others, including members of the Roebuck family. "The book has one supreme quality: it is fair-minded" - Martin Flanagan, Sydney Morning Herald "This first-class work of investigative reporting tracks down key figures who shed crucial light on Roebucks life, while resisting pat conclusions." - Steven Carroll, Canberra Times "This tantalising kaleidoscope of a book, which honours the complexity of the man while rigorously pursuing the truth." - Steven Carroll, Canberra Times "There could be no more difficult person to interperet" - Tim Lane, Sunday Age. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 2nd Edition. Condition of Hardback Book and Dustjacket: As New 'Put your mouthguard in and enjoy the read' exhorts Tim Lane in the foreword to The Hafey Years, an outstanding addition to the canon of Australian sports writing. For no name encapsulates the Richmond Football Club like the beloved figure of Tommy Hafey and no book has explored the characters, controversies, glories and turmoil of a powerhouse era until now. Read about Hart, Bartlett, Bourke, Sheedy and Balme, premiership triumphs, on and off-field stoushes, backroom deals, spectacular feats, bitter internal rivalries and recruiting coups. This was the highwater mark of the proud Tigers and it was not so much the winning of those 1967, '69, '73 and '74 premierships, but how they were won; the Tigers became the most ruthless, feared and contentious club of a generation. The legacy lasts to this day, the players involved long since declared immortals. Through it all lay the modest but unique Hafey, a man who inherited a club which had not played finals football for 20 years but within a decade would have his name etched in club lore. Author Elliot Cartledge has captured every critical, pivotal and controversial moment of this extraordinary decade and the tales told within echo down the ages. It is a fitting tribute to a dearly departed icon and lifts the lid on a remarkable era. 352pp.…
