The test : my life, and the inside story of the greatest Ashes series

Jones, Simon2015
Books
In 2005 Simon Jones took part in the greatest Ashes series of all time. As a devastating fast bowler on a brave, young England team, Jones went toe to toe with the might of the seemingly unbeatable Australians. Over the course of fifty-six days Simon would experience the greatest highs of his career, and plunge to the lowest depths. The match would change his life forever. In ten chapters that alternate between each of the five Tests and the remainder of his life, Simon presents the raw and unvarnished truth behind international sport; the joy and the sacrifice, the physical and mental cost and the unrelenting pressure.
