The Alastair Cook story

Sir Alastair Cook, who received a knighthood in the New Year Honours list - the first England cricketer to do so since Sir Ian Botham in 2007 - is the most prolific Test batsman the country has produced and one of the finest openers to grace the game.

Cook turned 34 on Christmas Day 2018, having retired from international cricket in September.

His career produced a phenomenal haul of 33 centures and 12,472 runs in 161 Tests - all three landmarks are England records.

This book tells his story.
