Get Her Off the Pitch!

Summary: "From the bestselling author of ʻEats, Shoots & Leavesʼ, this is the hilarious new book from Lynne Truss about her strange journey through the world of sport and sports journalism. Lynne Truss charts her often bizarre wanderings during her time as a sports journalist for the ʻSunday Timesʼ. From covering a heavyweight world title fight at Madison Square Garden, to watching England beat Holland from an airship above Wembley (while eating chocolate cake); from her extravagant feelings about Andre Agassi, to covering sports like cricket (where, initially, she didnʼt have any idea what was going on), Lynne Truss manages to crystallize exactly the essence of what sport is about, and bring her characteristic wisdom and wry humour to it."--Publisher description.
