Menace by Dennis Lillee
Dennis Lillee is a cricketing legend. Relentlessly hostile, unwaveringly accurate, he had the perfect combination of skill and a true fast bowler's temperament. On quick pitches he was almost unplayable, and many, like Garry Sobers, reckon he was the quickest of all time. In his fascinating autobiography, he recalls the great matches and the great characters he played with and against, such as Jeff Thomson, the Chappells and Rodney Marsh. Now a highly respected coach, he analyses the strengths and weaknesses of top players, and explains the techniques that made him so successful. Above all, he will be remembered in the UK for awesome demolition of England's batting line-ups over a period of years.

Lillee's autobiography largely keeps self-aggrandisement at bay, and is one of the most revealing of sports autobiographies.
Dennis Lillee won 70 Test caps for Australia between 1971 and 1984, taking a then world record 355 wickets at an unmatched rate for a fast bowler of more than five per game. He is still the most successful bowler in Ashes history.
