Book excerpt: "During the 2010-11 Ashes series, as a rampant England were laying waste to Australia, exacting a measure of revenge of twenty-four years of hurt down under, it became clear [that] the tourists had an advantage over the men in the Baggy Green: England had a twelfth man. England had the Barmy Army. By the end of the series, the Barmy Army seemed to outnumber home fans by a thousand to one, and their chants had helped to bring about the mental disintegration of key Australian players. The Barmy Army has been around for a long time, and this was payback for sixteen years of humiliation ... But who wewre the Barmy Army? And hown had they arrived at this point? More impoortantly: how were they still going strong after months of exuberant touring? In Ben Dirs' ... official account, we hear from all the key figures in the Barmy Army: from co-founders Paul Burnham, Gareth Evans and Dave Peacock; from Bill 'The Trumpet' and 'Jimmy Savile'; and from many others who have marched, sung, chanted, drunk, partied and had the time of their lives under the Barmy Army banner."--Book jacket.
