Description:
An extraordinary work of Australian history that puts women at the centre of the story.



'Not often in sport history do the events of men's and women's sport run parallel, adjacent and intertwined in importance. I could not think of another similar example anywhere in the world. Surprisingly, these women were key players in the Bodyline saga. This is their story.'




Over thirty years ago, historian Marion Stell tracked down the women who played in the inaugural international Test cricket series against England in the summer of 1934-1935. Their stories and this extraordinary time in Australian sport are told here for the first time.




After the contentious 'Bodyline' mens' series in 1932-1933, sporting relations between Australia and England were at an all-time low. The long traditions built on fair play and sportsmanship had been shattered and controversy raged in the media. At the same time, a group of talented young women were invited to play for their country. Hailing from all classes and backgrounds, these exceptional players defied social and family expectations to pursue the sport they loved, gaining recognition and celebrity in Test series here and abroad.




Drawing from rare source material, photos and interviews with the original players,

The Bodyline Fix shines a long-overdue light on gender, race and class in 1930s Australia. The impact and legacy of these early sportswomen lives on to inspire current generations.

Quality, comfort and support.
Size: Medium, Color: Deep Sea/Breaker Blue/Electro Pink
These socks are the bomb! If you are athletic or on your feet for extended periods these great looking, well made socks are constructed to offer just the right amount of compression and support. The toe is soft and thick. I will order these again and again. Hopefully Amazon will add even more color choices on the future.

Best socks
Size: Medium, Color: Pink Elixir Assorted
Everyone got socks in their stockings this year. But no one was complaining. They weren't thin like some socks. But not super thick either. Just right. I even bought a pair for myself. No regrets. Will definitely buy again.

Love it it was perfect for what I needed it for. Good quality!
Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black
It like a very dark chocolate brown/black. What I liked most about it is that you just pull it out of the box take the long plastic film off of it and it's ready to go. It has protective feet on the bottom. It's very attractive and it was so easy. It's so nice when you have a product you don't have to assemble.
