Somerset's Quest to Win the County Championship
Description
Kings in Waiting is the comprehensive account of Somerset's quest to win the Championship during the last decade, one which saw them finish runners-up five times. It charts a rise from obscurity under Justin Langer's leadership, how they created two fiercely competitive teams and also examines why they have consistently failed to win trophies.
